The Trader Vic’s in Beverly Hills is located in the Beverly Hilton Hotel, which after being owned by Merv Griffin for many years was recently sold. A few small rumors about changes have been bouncing about, and I’ve just received an anonymous tip that there are plans underway for it to be demolished and replaced with a tower. The anonymous tipster claims to have a connection to an organization involved in the project. Take it all with a grain of salt, but it doesn’t sound good. The Beverly Hills Trader Vic’s is the oldest of the remaining Trader Vic’s, having opened in 1955.

I certainly hope this doesn’t come to pass. As you probably know, I’ve had some fairly odd brushes with power-trippers and quasi-celebs at the BH Vic’s, so it’s earned kind of a special place in my life. I would also miss that awesome photo gallery of Merv hobnobbing with the Hollywood elite.
