Magically, Johnny Rockets--home of the Original Hamburger, captures a time when the corner malt shop was the friendliest place in town. It was an era that began when the Allies had just won the war and America was full of optimism and hope. It was also a time when couples would sit at the fountain, share a Coke, and listen to Nat King Cole. It continued through the fun of the 50's -- and it's still alive in the 90's -- at Johnny Rockets.

Founder Ronn Teitelbaum explains: "I'm a product of the '40's. I dreamed of bringing back the authentic malt shop that I remember as a kid. And I wanted to make the best hamburger in the world." With more than 80 restaurants worldwide, including six Johnny Rockets in northern California, located in San Francisco, Concord, San Jose, Milpitas and the newest in Redwood City, Teitelbaum has successfully made his dream come true.

In San Francisco, check out a menu of real American classics at Johnny Rockets, 2201 Chestnut (cross street Pierce, (415)931-6258); 1946 Fillmore (cross street Pine, (415) 776-9878); or 81 Jefferson @ Pier 39 in Fisherman's Wharf. Other sandwich favorites are grilled cheese, BLT's, tuna and egg salad. All can be complemented with orders of chili fries, hand-dipped ice cream shakes, malts and floats. And, please don't forget dessert -- especially when it's freshly-baked apple pie--just like the kind Mom used to make. Most Johnny Rocket locations are open daily from 10 a.m. Check individual locations for specific times.

A Lobster Salad with Mango in a delicate fresh ginger dressing is a perfect example of this light, elegant style.

"A soothing place to eat and talk, invisible service, and dependably good French food", says Caroline Bates of Gourmet Magazine. At a time when trends come and go, L'Olivier presents a solid alternative for people who want to be made to feel "special" in a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere.
