Little Hollywood

Little Hollywood Restaurant (est. 1960) along C.M. Recto Avenue is an old favorite haunt of drinkers who enjoy their. cholesterol heavy “pulutans” like the different Chicharon style (Bituka, Bulaklak, balat) to go with their beer. I believe the place started cooking roasted chicken in a rotisserie, along with Robina chicken (another company), in the 1970s, long before the advent of the lechon manok craze in the 1980s. I enjoy walking this area when I was small as my mother brings me with her to Roxan theater where she worked in the late 70s to watch early Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee flicks. Wala pang LRT nuon. After the movie, we would buy chicharon at Little Hollywood and munch it along the way.

Hi, please help us. Little Hollywood's roasted chicken has been a staple in family gatherings for 50 yy now. But the resto has been gone last we checked two weeks back. Any idea where it moved?
