Cheech to be Permanent Fixture at Palm Restaurant

The Palm Restaurant opened in New York City in 1926. At the time, the owners had no money to decorate. The cartoonists that drew for King Features Syndicate (which was located nearby) would often eat there and draw their cartoons on the walls. Eventually, the cartoonists began drawing caricatures of celebrities that came into the restaurant.

There are now a total of 25 Palm Restaurants in the U.S.

It hasn't been decided yet, but Cheech Marin will be immortalized in a caricature in either the Los Vegas or Los Angeles restaurant. There will also be a signing ceremony.

We will provide more details as they become available.
