  • The Whisky a Go Go

    The Whisky a Go Go

    ‘ I’ve never really been into music.  As I have mentioned before, if it’s not sung by Michael Bublé, Britney Spears or Michael Jackson, or was not a top ‘80s hit, chances are I haven’t heard it.  But my good friend Kim from Kentucky is a huge music buff, so when she and our good…

    The Federal Bar from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ It’s shaping up to be Parks and Recreation week at IAMNOTASTALKER.com, as here I am with yet another location from the series.  I actually came by today’s locale accidentally.  While scanning through P&R’s “Operation Ann” episode for yesterday’s post about the Hamburger Hamlet in Sherman Oaks, I spotted The Federal Bar, a North Hollywood…

    Judge Crawford’s House from “Fracture”

    ‘ After tracking down the hilltop abode Willy Beachum (aka cutie Ryan Gosling) called home in fave movie Fracture, which I blogged about last Tuesday, I became just a wee bit obsessed with finding the large brick mansion where Judge Gardner (aka Bob Gunton) lived in the flick.  Even though the dwelling showed up only…

    Joseph’s Café – Where Britney Spears Met Kevin Federline

    ‘ Circa 2000, I thought Britney Spears was everything!  Obviously, I don’t anymore (a person can only go into a gas station restroom barefoot so many times before I start to think they’re someone I shouldn’t be emulating), but ever since watching the Lifetime biopic Britney Ever After two weeks ago, I’ve had the pop…

  • Blissful Drip Café from “Big Little Lies”

    Blissful Drip Café from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ Big Little Lies producers sure like their fake coffee shops!  In the hit HBO series’ first season, Madeline Martha Mackenzie (Reese Witherspoon), Celeste Wright (Nicole Kidman) and Jane Chapman (Shailene Woodley) regularly hung out at Blue Blues, a supposed Old Fisherman’s Wharf restaurant that, as I mentioned here and here, was actually a studio-built…

    Imperial Western Beer Company from “Blast from the Past”

    ‘ I absolutely hate losing things – it is one of my biggest pet peeves, especially when the items can’t be replaced.  Such was the case with a group of photos I took of Union Station’s former Fred Harvey Restaurant back in June 2009.  Upon learning about the site and its appearance as the dance…

    ‘ One location that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, has been begging me to blog about for over a year now is the Canoga Park burger restaurant that stood in for Tamale Heaven in the Season Two episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 entitled “Ashes to Ashes”.  In real life that restaurant is named Michael’s Burgers and even…

    Le Petit Paris from “Little Fires Everywhere”

    ‘ Reese Witherspoon is deserving of a major ‘thank you’ from me!  Per the actress’ recent productions, I have been introduced to two fabulous downtown Los Angeles restaurants!  The first, The Wolves, popped up twice on her Apple TV+ series The Morning Show.  And now, via Little Fires Everywhere, I’ve discovered Le Petit Paris, a…

    The (Possible) Cafe from Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” Video

    ‘ [UPDATE – The Monte Carlo Restaurant is NOT where “Beat It” was filmed.  The iconic video was actually shot at the Special Café, located just a few blocks away.  You can read all about it here.  Even though this post contains erroneous information, I am leaving it up as it chronicles an important part…
