- Comments: The Brown Derby restaurant, that opened its doors in 1929, was as famous a part of Hollywood's golden brown-age culture as Mann's Chinese Theater or possibly Schwab's drugstore. It was a meeting place and hangout for such stars as Cecil B. DeMille, the Barrymores, and Rudolph Valentino, as well as many a Hollywood hopeful. The Brown Derby, according to legend, made a lasting contribution to American cuisine when restaurant manager Bob Cobb fixed a late-night meal from leftovers he found in the Derby kitchen, including chicken, bacon, avocado, tomatoes, and hard-boiled Large eggs. He placed them on a bed of lettuce, drizzled it all with dressing, and single-handedly invented the Cobb salad. Like the Caesar salad, the basic Cobb has inspired countless variations, such as this version which Martha created.
