A Happy Anniversary!


Today was our 51st Anniversary, and we had a wonderful time!  We decided to have lunch at Chez Jay, on Ocean Avenue in Santa Monica.  It is a legendary dive bar that has been around since 1959, but what makes it a big deal for us, is that it has been featured in two seasons of the Amazon series "Goliath" starring Billy Bob Thornton.  Thornton plays a down and out lawyer who lives in a nearby motel and hangs out in this bar!  It was really fun for us to have lunch here, and the food was absolutely delicious!


You can see that a poster for the show "Goliath" has been posted on the outside of the bar in the photo above.  Over the years, Chez Jay has been a notorious hangout for Hollywood celebrities.  This is not the greatest photo of the bar, but a car was parked directly in front of the restaurant which got in the way of having a better composition, and of a sense of place of the restaurant.
