Speaker 4: Memorial Day weekend, but even if you're not traveling very far,
Speaker 4: there is a lot of interesting things to see around
Speaker 4: southern California. Let's say good morning now to the author
Speaker 4: of thirty travel and history books, including James Dean Died Here,
Speaker 4: Roadside Baseball, and a bunch of others. Plus you've written
Speaker 4: for The La Times, for Travel and Leisure magazine. This
Speaker 4: guy loves to talk about travel. Good morning, Chris.
Speaker 3: Epting, Thank you for having me.
Speaker 9: Good to hear you.
Speaker 4: And we're not even talking about far off places for travel.
Speaker 4: In many cases, it's right in our own back, in
Speaker 4: our own backyard. And I'm going to tell you, Chris,
Speaker 4: that we have actually met before, and you will not
Speaker 4: remember it because it was probably ten years ago and
Speaker 4: it was at a day of authors at cal State Fullerton.
Speaker 4: And I'm going to tell you, wake up call that.
Speaker 4: When I met Chris, actually we listened to him talking
Speaker 4: about one of his books, and just he was so
Speaker 4: engaging and interesting. I was like, oh my god, I
Speaker 4: have to buy this book. And the book was about
Speaker 4: like places on the map where things happened, and it
Speaker 4: was like where James Dean died, which I drive by
Speaker 4: that location all the time now at the Highway forty
Speaker 4: six and forty one junction because I go to visit
Speaker 4: a friend in Pasa Robles, and so I think about
Speaker 4: your book every time I passed that junction.
Speaker 3: Well, a great memory, thank you, and I remember that event.
Speaker 3: I love those sorts of events and I appreciate you
Speaker 3: putting that together and getting us back here today.
Speaker 9: That's amazing and really flattered.
Speaker 4: So today we're not talking about things that you can
Speaker 4: still go and see, though, because you have a new
Speaker 4: book out it's called Lost Landmarks of Orange County.
Speaker 2: So tell us a little about your new book.
Speaker 3: Well, it's yeah, again, there are some things you can visit,
Speaker 3: little trace remnants.
Speaker 9: I mean, the cover of the book features a.
Speaker 3: Place that was called Lion Country Safari, which was down
Speaker 3: in Irvine from nineteen seventy about nineteen eighty four. Many
Speaker 3: of your listeners may have been there before, but even
Speaker 3: if they weren't there, I think it really speaks to
Speaker 3: this idea of just how crazy in terms of landmarks,
Speaker 3: Orange County has been in the last hundred or so years.
Speaker 3: And so if you go there today, of course Lyon
Speaker 3: Country Safari is gone. You can no longer wander and
Speaker 3: have giraffes and hippos and vinys come to your car.
Speaker 3: But there's a tree with a very famous lion, Frasier
Speaker 3: the Fraser, the Sensuous Lion he was called because he
Speaker 3: sired thirty five cups. Is buried under a California live
Speaker 3: oak tree there. So sometimes it's not entirely lost, and
Speaker 3: there are pieces like that which in the book I
Speaker 3: really tried to detail all of those sorts of things
Speaker 3: to tell the story, but also, you know, let people
Speaker 3: know if there is something else they can connect with
Speaker 3: the right.
Speaker 4: And so at the Lion Safari Park where Fraser is buried,
Speaker 4: what's there now?
Speaker 3: It's a housing complex call I think it's called Los
Speaker 3: of Libos, and it's also the former site of where
Speaker 3: Irvine Meadows Amphitheater was, So I traced the legacy of
Speaker 3: that really great concert venue that was there. And you
Speaker 3: know Orange County, you know, starting back really in the
Speaker 3: forties with not very farmament into Disneyland in the fifties
Speaker 3: was a tourist mecca. And so you've got lots of
Speaker 3: theme parks and places like that Buffalo Ranch, the Alligator Farm,
Speaker 3: the Japanese Deer Park. Those are all gone.
Speaker 9: But I also include movie.
Speaker 3: Theaters, restaurants, all the sorts of things that people may
Speaker 3: have grown up going too. That really helped to play
Speaker 3: it a part in shaping Orange County.
Speaker 4: But what it is today, Yeah, like you said, the
Speaker 4: past and what shaped Orange County And we have to
Speaker 4: go back to the Alligator Park because I'm not aware
Speaker 4: of that one. And what was the Alligator Park.
Speaker 3: The California Alligator Farm, opening about nineteen fifty. I learned
Speaker 3: something fascinating and researching this book in that in the
Speaker 3: mid fifties Walter Notd, who rank Notts Verry Farms to
Speaker 3: block Away, heard that the Alligator Farm was kind of
Speaker 3: on the brink of going at a business because of
Speaker 3: the cost of feeding alligators. He realized each night that
Speaker 3: it not's very farmed. They were throwing out lots of
Speaker 3: raw chicken from their famous for our chicken restaurant, so
Speaker 3: he began to help them out. He had the chicken
Speaker 3: carted down there at night, which got them over that
Speaker 3: hurdle and kept them there till the early nineteen eighties.
Speaker 9: So you had a lot of great stories like.
Speaker 3: That too, sort of entrepreneurs looking you at for each
Speaker 3: other and realizing that you didn't have to be that
Speaker 3: competitive because if everyone did well, then the county did well.
Speaker 3: And so you had a lot of those kinds of
Speaker 3: stories of places helping each other out.
Speaker 9: That's my favorite. And the fact that you could go.
Speaker 3: Sit feed baby alligators. They had baskets on the back
Speaker 3: of alligators and you could ride and they would send
Speaker 3: alligators hurtling down slides into the water.
Speaker 9: I mean it was crazy.
Speaker 2: Well, you could ride on the back of an alligator.
Speaker 3: There's pictures going back. Yeah, actually, and I don't know
Speaker 3: how long that was in effect, with the ars of
Speaker 3: postcard images of kids on the back of you know,
Speaker 3: the snouts are tied, obviously, but such was the thrill
Speaker 3: of the California Alligator Farm, I.
Speaker 4: Can understand why that one may no longer be there.
Speaker 4: So in your research, Chris, did you talk to people
Speaker 4: who experienced these locations or are they games that you
Speaker 4: remember from your childhood or how did you go about
Speaker 4: getting all of.
Speaker 3: These I grew up. I grew up in Westchester County,
Speaker 3: New York. I moved to Orange County about twenty five
Speaker 3: years ago, so I had my own experiences.
Speaker 9: But they didn't go back that far. So yes, I absolutely.
Speaker 3: Spoke to people from from locals who grew up going
Speaker 3: to see concerts and things all the way down to
Speaker 3: like I had a great conversation with Steve Martin about
Speaker 3: the Golden Bear, a former nightclub in Huntington Beach where
Speaker 3: he kind of first made his mark in the early seventies.
Speaker 3: He's from Orange County, from Garden Growth. I spoke to
Speaker 3: Jackson Brown about the Golden Bear as well, and a
Speaker 3: good buddy of this was the dishwasher there who Jackson
Speaker 3: encouraged to go up to la and ultimately landed the
Speaker 3: audition of Peter Torque and the Monkeys. So you know,
Speaker 3: there were some revelations like that that I found fascinating
Speaker 3: just as a journalist talking to people like that, But
Speaker 3: plenty of locals recounted of what it was like to
Speaker 3: grow up here in the forties and fifties and sixties
Speaker 3: and so on, and the great drive in movie theaters
Speaker 3: and all sorts of things that you know, again, every
Speaker 3: place has them. Orange County just had a lot of
Speaker 3: the Orange Counties thirty four cities tied together, and so
Speaker 3: I touch upon a lot of different things from sports
Speaker 3: to agriculture, to oil, to music, to movies to everything
Speaker 3: that again helped make the counthy where it is today.
Speaker 3: It's a sort of treatment I honestly would love to
Speaker 3: do with La County as well, and I'm thinking about
Speaker 3: that now because again, the southern California, places where everybody
Speaker 3: came to visit from all over the world, have plenty
Speaker 3: of these lost landmarks.
Speaker 4: So interesting. I love talking to Chris Epting, and we're
Speaker 4: not done with him yet. We're going to find out
Speaker 4: in our next segment which lost landmark Chris misses the most,
Speaker 4: and also how Disney plays into the history of lost
Speaker 4: landmarks in Orange County.
Speaker 2: Of course, I always have to wrap Disney into something.
Speaker 4: Let's get back to some of the stories coming out
Speaker 4: of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom. President Trump says
Speaker 4: the US will delay implementation of a fifty percent tariff

Speaker 4: a planned partnership with Nipon Steel, saying it'll save their jobs.
Speaker 4: Glenn Thomas has worked at a Pittsburgh area plant for
Speaker 4: more than forty years and says this one means a lot.
Speaker 4: Not only is it is it the steel workers jobs
Speaker 4: that it says, it's the contractor's jobs, it's the local
Speaker 4: community's tax base. Nippon Steel has offered fifteen billion dollars
Speaker 4: to buy the American company. The Federal Trade Commission is

Speaker 4: the impact may last longer than most things.
Speaker 5: Kids whose parents split up before they turn five are
Speaker 5: more likely to struggle later in life, earning less money
Speaker 5: and facing higher risks of teen pregnancy, jail time, and
Speaker 5: even early death. Researchers see it's not just the divorce,
Speaker 5: it's the rival effects. The study, using federal tax and
Speaker 5: census data, found that divorce often leads to lost income,
Speaker 5: moves to lower income neighborhoods, and less time with parents
Speaker 5: who are working more just to stay afloat Brigida Degastino
Speaker 5: KFI News.

Speaker 4: day off, But we have our very O'Neil Savager here
Speaker 4: and we're going to be talking about the top federal
Speaker 4: prosecutor in LA looking to neutralize California's sanctuary laws. Right now,
Speaker 4: we're talking with travel author Chris Epting and his book
Speaker 4: Lost Landmarks of Orange County. What Chris is the lost
Speaker 4: landmark that makes you most sad that it's no longer here?
Speaker 3: Well, Lying country definitely is why I went there as
Speaker 3: a kid visiting from New York in nineteen seventy four,
Speaker 3: and that one, to me is just again, it serves
Speaker 3: so many purposes there were I talked to people that
Speaker 3: had like their junior and senior proms there. It wasn't
Speaker 3: just for tourists, so plenty of locals use to I
Speaker 3: think if I could have one back, that would be
Speaker 3: the top of the list, along with the Golden Bear,
Speaker 3: because again, from the early sixties to the mid eighties,
Speaker 3: everybody played there was a lot of music history there
Speaker 3: one other site. This year marks the tennial of the
Speaker 3: very famous baseball game out in Brea, California, that featured
Speaker 3: no less than Babe Ruth and Walter Johnson. And it
Speaker 3: was a little place called the Brea Bowl, and I
Speaker 3: wish that was still there today. It was a field
Speaker 3: that oil companies would use for their kind of inter
Speaker 3: squad baseball games. And the fact that one hundred years ago,
Speaker 3: in October of nineteen twenty four, Walter Johnson, who went
Speaker 3: to Fullerton High School, staged a game they're featuring. He
Speaker 3: played against Babe Rude and it's a very notable game.
Speaker 3: I write about it in the book, and I think
Speaker 3: it'd be fun to have that back, as well as
Speaker 3: sort of a famous, a legendary baseball diamond.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: What gave you kind of the travel bug? Because you've
Speaker 4: written about so many interesting places that a lot of
Speaker 4: people maybe wouldn't have even thought of, but for whatever reason,
Speaker 4: you go, ooh, that's cool.
Speaker 2: What sparks.
Speaker 3: I can tell you exactly. I had a moment when
Speaker 3: I was about ten years old. Newspaper in New York,
Speaker 3: the Daily News, had a little article about marily Monroe,
Speaker 3: and it showed her opposing in the seven Year Itch
Speaker 3: the famous scene where the white dress billows up over
Speaker 3: the subway grade, and it said that that actual subway
Speaker 3: grade was in New York City at the northwest corner
Speaker 3: at fifty second Street and Lexington Avenue. And the next
Speaker 3: time we were in the city, I dragged my parents
Speaker 3: over there and I found that subway grade, and in
Speaker 3: my head, I thought, literally, how many places are there?
Speaker 3: All the New Yorkers were walking over nobody knew what
Speaker 3: had taken place there, And that planted the seed of
Speaker 3: like all these other places that we walked by every
Speaker 3: day and not know that some sort of cultural history
Speaker 3: was made there, from the sublime to the ridiculous. And
Speaker 3: that was literally what set me off on this idea
Speaker 3: that there's got to be a lot of these places,
Speaker 3: whether it's things Dean passed away, or where the Hindenburgh crashed,
Speaker 3: or where Elvis did his first concert, whatever it happens
Speaker 3: to be. You know, I spent the last twenty five
Speaker 3: some odd years writing those books, and you know, I
Speaker 3: love California. I always wanted to live here, and to
Speaker 3: the fact that I have been able to live here
Speaker 3: and make a living here, I focus a lot of
Speaker 3: attention on California, especially southern California in this case with
Speaker 3: Orange County, and I've written a lot about la as well,
Speaker 3: and i just feel like this really is the cultural
Speaker 3: crossroads of.
Speaker 9: The United States in many ways.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and Chris, you write about in your new book
Speaker 4: the Lost Landmarks of Orange County, places that aren't actually
Speaker 4: no longer there, but parts of them that are no
Speaker 4: longer there. And I'm a huge disney fan, So you
Speaker 4: have a section about things at Disneyland and not Berry
Speaker 4: Farm that are no longer there exactly.
Speaker 3: And that's the key point, because you said, but I've
Speaker 3: got chapters in the book on both places for the
Speaker 3: many attractions no longer there, including in Disneyland's case, the
Speaker 3: Tomorrowland Stage, which was a very famous performance space where
Speaker 3: Space Mountain is located today. I write about how in
Speaker 3: the early seventies, a Linda Ronsdack got book there. Needing
Speaker 3: a band to play behind her, she gathered up some
Speaker 3: buddies from the Troubadour in West Hollywood. They came down
Speaker 3: to back her, thus sort of giving birth to the
Speaker 3: Eagles who first got together playing at their backup Oh
Speaker 3: My Gold Stage. And you can also see in Newport
Speaker 3: on MacArthur Boulevard the original Disneyland, and Sam sits up
Speaker 3: by Rogers Garden, up on a hill with a plaque
Speaker 3: by it. So again that's an example of being able
Speaker 3: to look at an actual artist sat out in the
Speaker 3: open connected to Disneyland.
Speaker 4: I love that there's so much history in all of this, Chris.
Speaker 4: What do you hope that people get out of this book?
Speaker 3: I hope they just get a sense that we can
Speaker 3: always learn from the past, and it's good to go
Speaker 3: back and rekindle memories again, whether you grew up here
Speaker 3: or not. I wanted this to be a book that
Speaker 3: anybody can get something out of because of rich storytelling
Speaker 3: and great images, and just an appreciation of the fact
Speaker 3: that even though places change over the decades, he can
Speaker 3: never erase the memories. He can never erase the effects
Speaker 3: that those places had in helping to shape a community.
Speaker 4: All right, Chris Epting, thank you so much for sharing
Speaker 4: just a few of the stories, and of course you
Speaker 4: can read all of the stories of the Lost Landmarks
Speaker 4: of Orange County.
Speaker 2: Chris. Where can we get the book?
Speaker 3: It's available on Amazon, all major bookstores had books, or
Speaker 3: wherever books are sold. You can find it, and I
Speaker 3: hope people enjoy it. The response so far has been wonderful,
Speaker 3: beyond my imagination, and so I'm really appreciative for this
Speaker 3: time to chat about it.
Speaker 9: Thank you.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Thanks.
Speaker 4: I think a lot of people are nostalgic, and you know,
Speaker 4: with the world moving so fast, sometimes it's nice to
Speaker 4: just stop and take a look back.
Speaker 3: I think you nailed it. I think that's really the
Speaker 3: key point with a lot of these kinds of books.
Speaker 9: I do what you just said right now.
Speaker 4: All right, Chris Epting, thank you so much for your
Speaker 4: time today, and hopefully we can talk to you when
Speaker 4: we have the Lost Landmarks.
Speaker 3: Of La County anytime.
Speaker 4: Take care, Thanks so much, so so interesting do you
Speaker 4: think lost Landmarks of Orange County? And I absolutely love
Speaker 4: that there was an alligator park. Can't imagine what could
Speaker 4: possibly go wrong with that. The top federal prosecutor in
Speaker 4: LA is stepping up immigration enforcement.
Speaker 11: US Attorney Bill as Ailey says the new initiative, called
Speaker 11: Operation Guardian Angel, is targeting individuals in jails who have
Speaker 11: been deported and re entered the US illegally. Those people
Speaker 11: will now be charged with federal crimes. He says, this
Speaker 11: approach aims to circumvent California's sanctuary laws, which limit local
Speaker 11: cooperation with federal immigration authorities. Assaille, a former Republican assemblyman,
Speaker 11: is focusing efforts on county jails and state prisons, key
Speaker 11: areas where sanctuary policies have restricted federal access.

Speaker 4: With summer grilling season now upon us and a lot
Speaker 4: of people planning to cook a good stick today for
Speaker 4: Memorial Day barbecues, we went out and about to one
Speaker 4: of the best steakhouses, not in La not in the US,
Speaker 4: but in the whole wide world. And I got to
Speaker 4: let you know, we're in the kitchen with all the fans,
Speaker 4: so they have to have the fans on so there
Speaker 4: aren't fires and that kind of thing. So there is
Speaker 4: some ambient noise, but we can still hear Curtis loud
Speaker 4: and clear in his kitchen at Gwen in Hollywood, and
Speaker 4: with us we.
Speaker 2: Have one of the owners of Gwen.
Speaker 4: It's Curtis Stone, you may recognize, and thanks for taking
Speaker 4: the time to do this with us, curtit.
Speaker 13: Are You're so welcome?
Speaker 6: How are you doing?
Speaker 2: I'm great?
Speaker 4: So I want to hear about this fabulous restaurant of yours.
Speaker 4: Tell us about what makes gwhen so great that it
Speaker 4: got ranked one of the best in the whole world.
Speaker 6: Well, look, I think when it comes to it in state, there's.
Speaker 12: Everything that happens before it gets to the shift, and
Speaker 12: that's really important. That goes right back to the farmer,
Speaker 12: a rancher, right, like what breed of cattle is it?
Speaker 12: What feed does that feed on? At what point is
Speaker 12: the animal harvested? How long is it aged for? Because
Speaker 12: we dry age all of our meats, so that's all
Speaker 12: farmer and butcher work. And then we get a wonderful
Speaker 12: quality steak given to us in the kitchen.
Speaker 6: Look at this beauty. Wow, that great.
Speaker 12: So what you want to see here is a nice
Speaker 12: layer of fat over the top of it and then
Speaker 12: beautiful marbling throughout. So all of that gorgeous flavor it does,
Speaker 12: so that gives it all of its richness. So this
Speaker 12: is preakstone. Is the ranch that we get it from?
Speaker 12: Where's that the middle of the country. Yep, So it's
Speaker 12: beautiful quality beef and we love cooking with its absolutely going.
Speaker 4: And you're a stickler for this kind of thing, like
Speaker 4: making sure that you're sourcing it and getting it from
Speaker 4: good places so that it's sustainably done.
Speaker 13: And that's a big thing we do right and we
Speaker 13: get the best.
Speaker 12: It doesn't matter where it comes from. We buy grass
Speaker 12: fed out of Australia. I bring in the best wagu
Speaker 12: This is grain fed from the United States.
Speaker 6: So I just you know, it's all about the quality, okay.
Speaker 12: And then of course, once you get a good piece
Speaker 12: of steak, it's about how you cook it.
Speaker 6: So here when we cook everything over life fire.
Speaker 4: Okay, So it's not done in ovens or on hand
Speaker 4: suit or anything.
Speaker 13: It's grilled and an oven.
Speaker 12: Bed straight over, so very primal way of cooking. We've
Speaker 12: been cooking over fire for a long period of time.
Speaker 12: We burned apple wood here at the restaurant and that
Speaker 12: gives you a really hot, hot.
Speaker 13: Cold well even the coal smell, yeah they do.
Speaker 12: And you don't want it too smoking something like hickory
Speaker 12: or mesquite might be too rich in terms of the
Speaker 12: flavor of that smoke.
Speaker 6: So so I'll show you. I'll tell you more about
Speaker 6: the fire when we get there, Okay. The first thing
Speaker 6: you need to do is season your steak really well generously. Okay.
Speaker 4: Watch all the cooking shows and they say you gotta
Speaker 4: salt stuff.
Speaker 6: You got to salt it.
Speaker 13: Well, I'm a big.
Speaker 2: Separate for cooking shows.
Speaker 9: I like that.
Speaker 6: Give it me in business.
Speaker 12: So then you season all corners and as well with pepper,
Speaker 12: and just.
Speaker 2: Salt and pepper.
Speaker 13: I don't see anything else here being.
Speaker 6: Prepped, no other dry rub, and you season all of
Speaker 6: that steak.
Speaker 12: If you were to feel it, you'd feel it's at
Speaker 12: room temperature.
Speaker 6: So that's important.
Speaker 12: So it's called tempering the beef because you want the
Speaker 12: inside to get beautifully pink.
Speaker 6: You don't want it to be gray on the outside,
Speaker 6: red in the middle.
Speaker 12: And you know so medium rere can mean lots of
Speaker 12: different things, but for us, tempering the meat is important.
Speaker 12: If you let it come up to room temperature, it'll
Speaker 12: talk much more even.
Speaker 13: There, okay, Okay for cooking on your ground.
Speaker 6: So let's go out of the fire. So you take that.
Speaker 6: We're gonna put fat side down first, okay.
Speaker 12: And you see the little basket next to it, that's
Speaker 12: called a brassiro.
Speaker 4: Okay, and it's gonna get really loud here for a second,
Speaker 4: because we're under the fans.
Speaker 6: We neither fans or we'd start to be fire.
Speaker 13: So we heard you did that one time. Oh yeah,
Speaker 13: it's happened.
Speaker 12: It's happened a couple of times. Actually drag some of
Speaker 12: that coal over and then we pop the steak straight on,
Speaker 12: fat side down. We're gonna let that fat just render
Speaker 12: and caramelize, okay, and then we'll turn it so we're
Speaker 12: gonna get all of that delicious flavor from the smoke,
Speaker 12: just whispering up and tickling the steak and giving it
Speaker 12: a wonderful sent tickling, and.
Speaker 4: Then to get that steak to the perfection that it
Speaker 4: will be about how long.
Speaker 12: Does it take to cut a steak like That'll probably
Speaker 12: take us about thirty five.
Speaker 13: Minutes to call wow, and what's that cut?
Speaker 6: Now that's a New York strip. It shouldn't take that long.
Speaker 6: But let me explain it.
Speaker 12: We cook it over a hot fire, so we want
Speaker 12: that that rich caramelization.
Speaker 6: But then we take it off and let it rests.
Speaker 6: Then we put it back on.
Speaker 12: Let me take it off and that it rests a
Speaker 12: second time, and then we put it back on. So
Speaker 12: we literally cook it in three stages.
Speaker 13: I haven't heard of that.
Speaker 6: Checked it.
Speaker 14: Yeah.
Speaker 12: People always talk about resting protein at the end of
Speaker 12: the cooking process, but you should rest it in between
Speaker 12: during the cooking process as well.
Speaker 4: Okay, didn't know that, Neil Sevader. Did you know that?
Speaker 2: Did you? Did you?
Speaker 9: What's that?
Speaker 2: I was chatting with Anne? Oh.
Speaker 4: Curtis Stone says, when you're cooking the perfect steak, you
Speaker 4: cook it for a while and then you pull it
Speaker 4: off the heat and let it rest, and then you
Speaker 4: put it back on the heat and cook it for
Speaker 4: more and then pull it back off again and then
Speaker 4: put it back on and finish it. Sounds tedious, sounds
Speaker 4: like and I had the steak. It is the best steak,
Speaker 4: arguably the best steak I've ever had in my whole life.
Speaker 14: It was spectacular, starting with the best materials too, so
Speaker 14: absolute he's got great ingredients. Yeah, so he's doing a
Speaker 14: reverse sere, and a reverse sere is county to how
Speaker 14: we learned when we were kids, which was to sear
Speaker 14: it off and then let it come to temp. So
Speaker 14: now you let it come to temp under low heat,
Speaker 14: indirect heat, and then you sear it off and then
Speaker 14: you don't need to let it rest the same amount
Speaker 14: of time afterwards, and all that good stuff good.
Speaker 2: And we're not done with Curtis Stone yet.
Speaker 4: We've got some more on how to cook the perfect
Speaker 4: state for your Memorial Day barbecue or anytime during this
Speaker 4: summer grilling season that is coming up. Several ceremonies are
Speaker 4: being held around the Southland to honor the nation's fallen
Speaker 4: war veterans. A ceremony is being held at eight this
Speaker 4: morning at the C. Robert Lee Activity Center in Hawaiian Gardens.
Speaker 4: Ceremonies are also being held at nine am at Lancaster Cemetery,
Speaker 4: Lacy Park in San Marino, and Whittier City Hall. So
Speaker 4: many ceremonies, remembrances, parades, rides, that kind of thing, and
Speaker 4: of course it's so important to remember those who gave
Speaker 4: the ultimate sacrifice. A man has been killed in an
Speaker 4: officer involved shooting in Fontana. Fontana police responded to a
Speaker 4: domestic violence call early yesterday morning. They say, as the
Speaker 4: door was opened, the thirty one year old man pointed
Speaker 4: a gun at officers.
Speaker 2: That's when he was shot.
Speaker 4: Disney's Leelo and Stitch has scored the biggest Memorial Day
Speaker 4: weekend opening ever, it has taken in one hundred and
Speaker 4: eighty three million dollars in the US as of Sunday,
Speaker 4: more than doubling the hall from Tom Cruise's eighth Mission Impossible.
Speaker 4: The final reckoning It's still Open was seventy seven million
Speaker 4: dollars at the box office. That's the best weekend ever
Speaker 4: in the Mission Impossible franchise, which began in nineteen ninety six.
Speaker 4: Can you believe he's been doing those movies for twenty
Speaker 4: years now. We're just minutes away from handle on the
Speaker 4: news this morning, a mob of vandals has trashed downtown
Speaker 4: La handles out this morning. But Nil Savadra's sitting in
Speaker 4: the big chair. Get an us all up to date
Speaker 4: on that and so much more. We're talking to the
Speaker 4: one and only Curtis Stone, the owner of Gwen in Hollywood,
Speaker 4: about how to cook the perfect steak for your Memorial
Speaker 4: Day barbecue or at any time this grilling season.
Speaker 13: Chris, My next.
Speaker 4: Question for you is everybody might now be able to
Speaker 4: make it down to Gwen to get one of your
Speaker 4: good steaks.
Speaker 13: Oh yeah, And so for people who are trying to
Speaker 13: cook the.
Speaker 4: Perfect steak at home, Yeah, You've given us some great tips,
Speaker 4: So are there any things that people really just need
Speaker 4: to remember as they're doing their steaks?
Speaker 12: Push well, listen, we have a great butcher shop here
Speaker 12: at Gwen too, so you literally enter the restaurant through
Speaker 12: the butcher shop, so you can come and pick up
Speaker 12: steaks from us, or if you're too far, that's fine,
Speaker 12: but do start.
Speaker 6: With a good quality cut of beef hot grill. That's
Speaker 6: the first really important part.
Speaker 12: Let your steak temper season it before you put it
Speaker 12: on the grill. Okay, turn it once and then take
Speaker 12: it off and let it rest for about five to
Speaker 12: ten minutes. Put it back on the grill for another
Speaker 12: two or three minutes, and turn it again, and that's it.
Speaker 4: Serve it very simple, and that trick you got to
Speaker 4: let it rest in the middle, and then you're going
Speaker 4: to have a steak that is curdis stone worthy.
Speaker 13: Awesome.
Speaker 12: See how it's gotten beautiful and golden brown on the top,
Speaker 12: so that's the fact that we've rendered and caramelized, so
Speaker 12: that's going to be absolutely delicious, and then you stick
Speaker 12: it down.
Speaker 6: The one thing that we tend to do with.
Speaker 12: Meat we put on the grill is we poke it
Speaker 12: and prod it, and we touch it and we turn it.
Speaker 6: Just leave it.
Speaker 13: Don't do that.
Speaker 12: Nothing's going to happen to it, right, Just give it
Speaker 12: that minute for two minutes without touching it, because what's
Speaker 12: happening is you're making contact with a really hot grill
Speaker 12: and that smoke that's coming up that leads time for
Speaker 12: the caramelization to set.
Speaker 6: So don't mess with it. Just give it a minute
Speaker 6: or two and then turn it.
Speaker 4: Okay, It sounds so easy, and I also love that
Speaker 4: you can hear your excitement. You've been doing this for
Speaker 4: a really long time and you're so excited about it,
Speaker 4: and it's infectious. So thank you again, Curtis Stone.
Speaker 13: We went out and about to when La.
Speaker 4: It's on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, and it's delicious. They
Speaker 4: also do these sandwiches because they're not open at lunch anymore.
Speaker 4: They're open for dinner and if you're looking for a
Speaker 4: good sandwich, I think it was seventeen dollars, so it's
Speaker 4: you know, it's a little pricier than going to your
Speaker 4: neighborhood sandwich shop. These sandwiches are spectacular, especially like if
Speaker 4: you're going we got them one night when we were
Speaker 4: going to the Hollywood Bowl. It was such a great
Speaker 4: treat and so yummy, yummy. And that's lunchtime only. Let's
