The Musso & Frank Grill is a Hollywood landmark.
Since 1919, the restaurant has catered to more television, music and movie stars than current proprietor Mark Echeverria can count — not that he names names. The venue prides itself on being a low-key place for celebrities to visit, free from paparazzi.
During a recent trip to Los Angeles, I had dinner with Mark, 35, at Musso’s.
He told me how he went from working in the outdoors in his 20s to managing a Tinseltown institution in his 30s, without any experience in how to run a restaurant. The highs and the lows alone could be a movie in their own right.
