American Beauty = Barbecue.

I was hesitant to post this photograph because I wasn't totally convinced it was Venice CA.


EBAY

"1916 VENICE BEACH CA BOARDWALK AMERICAN BEAUTY BARBECUE" asking........................................ $299.99





While trying to find additional proof [that this Venice], I happened upon this article about a planned "meat focused" restaurant in Venice.


EATER: L.A.

And guess what the name of the new restaurant is going to be.

Yep, AMERICAN BEAUTY.


My question is: What does 'American Beauty' have to do with barbecue? am I missing something?

While I'm here, let's take a closer look at the astonishly well dressed people in the 1916 photograph.


detail

note: One of the lovely ladies has cleverly strapped her cell phone to the back of her hand.
also note...they're wearing matching mink stoles! (the kind with the head, feet and tail attached)




And take a gander at this fine looking lad.


detaail

Arrow collar...and possibly smoking a pipe?
