6/10/99
ok, the pics are in & all scanned. please keep in mind that this webpage page is obviously a work in progress, so what i'm sayin is i will update it as time is available. unfortunately, w/ my moronic scanning abilities & lack of my own comp, as well as havin spent approx. $120 on this whole thing, i don't feel the need to add any more unless i get some fuckin feedback from you losers. anywayz, on w/ the pics. i've gone ahead & segregated the pics by area. obviously, this is NOT as definitive as i'd like it to be, so sign my guestbook or email me so i know there's some reason to keep posting pics.
Justification for all This
a little prose on how all this came about.
Best Restrooms, Cafe
here's the nominees for Best Restroom, Cafe. these are purely subjective of course.
been my favorite cafe since my ex-girlfriend took me there day after valentine's. hella cozy antique velvet furniture, great artwork, nice victorian/european feel, great lighting, great artwork. the restroom at this joint is just the icing on the cake. also check out my review of Anastasia's on the cafe review page.
one of my fave haunts & definitely a top cafe around town. my best friend janis introduced me to it on my 22nd b-day. wouldn't you know it i've hung out there only on my b-days. well, this was the 1st time i've been there on a non-bday, but it was well worth it. this restroom is definitely tight. also check out my review of the Noura in my cafe review page. highly recommended.
Best Restrooms, Hollywood
a little dissertation on the hollywood restroom scene.
one of Hollywood's main attractions. a hollywood hilite for decades, yet never truly brought to life until now. cum experience the restrooms here at Mann's.
one of the best restaurants in L.A. Great food, hella awesome view of the city, truly one of the most awesome dining experiences around town. what does it's restroom have to offer, however? take a peek.
i've always seen this rather swanky hotel & driven past it. then i decided to take a gander. here's what i found.
this is the one on Hollywood, across from Mann's Chinese & close to the Roosevelt Hotel. the only one i've seen that has a bar inside.
a neat little 24 hour cafe that just opened up. i am both thrilled & sickened by this place. click here & let me explain. or go check out the review i gave it over on my Cafe review page.
right on hollywood blvd, a long time staple of the hollywood scene. just how glamorous are it's toilets? check it out.
a notorious hollywood haven for the ultra cool along with the ultra wannabes. my kinda freakpad. just how demented are it's bathroom walls? come (open your) fly w/ me.
right across from the Burgeoise Pig, this is where all the fat cats get shacked up @ when they do their worship. just what will it's bathrooms offer? hmm...
another 24 hour joint. kinda steep, but it's a nice little 50's style cafe that's always packed. here's a looksee @ their restrooms.
Best Restrooms, Beverly Hills
