The Street Where “The Hills” Finale Was Filmed

For whatever reason, though,…

The Dresden Restaurant
‘ A couple of months ago I was flipping through one of my favorite stalking tomes, Hollywood Escapes: The Moviegoer’s Guide to Exploring Southern California’s Great Outdoors, when I came across a blurb written about the legendary Dresden Restaurant in Hollywood.
