This site, assembled from the Menu Collection at the Los Angeles Public Library, offers readers a glimpse into the wide and changing gastronomic world of Los Angeles. Here readers will discover film footage from a 1946 drive through downtown L.A., with glimpses of classic eateries, a 1956 advertisement for the 24-hour drive-in, Scrivner's, a menu from the 1895 Chamber of Commerce banquet in celebration for the organization's 7th year, and many more fascinating glimpses into the history of food in Southern California. In addition, readers may "follow" ToLiveAndDineInLA and receive updates whenever there are new posts.
