Kavkaz Grill or BBQ

Just past where Santa Monica Blvd. crosses over the Hollywood Freeway, headed east, there is this odd little restaurant. No celebrities eat there. But the menu is interesting. They grill, over charcoal, lamb heart, kidney and liver and serve it as a kebab (skewer).

Sic Transit Gloria Mundi (Latino)

While passing the former record store: Ritmo Latino on Santa Monica Blvd. in Hollywood California, I was surprised to see it's total demise.

Even the
Ritmo Latino website is only an online store.

Where once were the handprints of Thalia, Alejandro Fernández, and several other celebrated Latin musicians, singers and talents, their plaques are now laying on the sidewalk as dust.
Sic Transit Gloria Mundi.

My heart broke when I saw this.

Larger Advertising

This is a storage business building on the north side of Santa Monica Boulevard, at the intersection of La Brea Avenue. This advert runs the entire length of the building. The scale of size can be gained by seeing the Dodge PT Cruiser by comparison.

The Roots (have fallen)

Usually signs like this are mounted along the street light standards. Most any of the thoroughfares in Hollywood will have a rapper's performance or such advertised in this manner. Here, however, someone didn't have a ladder.
