Former site of the St. Francis Dam
kjfitz (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: kjfitz.
The St. Francis Dam was a concrete gravity-arch dam, designed to create a reservoir as a storage point of the Los Angeles Aqueduct. The dam was located 40 miles (64 km) northwest of Los Angeles, California, near the present city of Santa Clarita. The dam was built between 1924 and 1926 under the supervision of William Mulholland, chief engineer and general manager of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (then called the Bureau of Water Works and Supply). Three minutes before midnight on March 12, 1928, the dam catastrophically failed, and the resulting flood killed more than 600 people. The collapse of the St. Francis Dam is one of the worst American civil engineering failures of the 20th century and remains the second-greatest loss of life in California's history, after the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake and fire, and it marked the end of Mulholland's career.

The Stand
Parabellum (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: Parabellum.
Decorated like an old-timey soda fountain, The Stand sports a huge menu of dogs, burgers, and sandwiches. Marlene chose the Big Bleu Dog with bleu cheese, grilled onions, and chipotle BBQ sauce. Amy & I built our own Kosher Dog with bacon, grilled onions, hot mustard, and Stand sauce (a savory ketchup/mayo sauce, akin to Hires Big H’s Fry Sauce in Salt Lake City). Both dogs came with homemade potato chips, which were a huge plus for all parties. Glass-bottled sodas were also a treat, specifically a brand that we’ve never seen before: Ed & Pete’s Lemonade from Bristol, Rhode Island.

Seven Sisters Colliery
David Evans of the Evans-Bevan coal mining partnership, had wanted to call the colliery after his daughter, Isabella Bevan who cut the first sod on the land at Bryn Dulais farm with a silver spade on Monday, March 11 1872.[2] However, in light of superstition, and the fact that his own six sisters attended the ceremony, Evans agreed to call the mine Severn Sisters.[
Anthracite coal fields always suffer from blow out, and on the 10th of November 1907, one occurred which killed 5 men. In 1923, there were 607 men working at Seven Sisters, producing from the Furnace Four Feet, Brass and Nine Feet Big Vein seams. During World War 2 the colliery featured in an anti-Nazi film The Silent Village, made with the cooperation of the South Wales Miners Federation.
During the 1950s geological problems and changing economic conditions took their toll, and in May 1963 the colliery closed and the pit filled in. The men who had been employed at the Seven Sisters were transferred to the nearby Blaenant Colliery, which closed in 1990.

Rocky and Carlo's Restaurant and Bar
Parabellum (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: Parabellum.
You don't hear much about Rocky and Carlo's outside of southern Louisiana, but locals know it as a culinary gem. Located out in St. Bernard Parish, where hurricane Katrina's devastation is still very much in evidence, the reborn restaurant is a spacious eating hall featuring that little-appreciated but essential confluence of local cuisine – Italian-Cajun-Dixie fare. Walk along the cafeteria line and select from a broad hot-lunch menu that includes pork chops with greens, braciola, veal parm, stuffed peppers, muffalettas, fried shrimp or oysters, and gorgeous baked chicken. The blackboard menu also lists wop salad, the locals' politically incorrect term for garlic-bathed iceberg lettuce with green olives, and many customers come for the excellent po boys and hamburgers sided by sensationally luscious fried onions.
No matter what you eat at Rocky and Carlo's, the single dish that demands attention is the inconspicuous menu listing, "macaroni." There is none better. Very different from typical mac 'n' cheese made with elbow noodles, this mountain of baked pasta is built from substantial percatelli tubes that come plastered with orange cheese – tender gobs from the the heart, chewy strips from the top, and crisp webbed bark from the casserole's edge. Some people get it topped with sweet red marinara sauce or glistening mahogany brown gravy, both of which are very good; but this world-class macaroni needs no adornment whatsoever.

The Camellia Grill
Parabellum (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: Parabellum.
For a real feast for all the senses away from the French Quarter take the St. Charles street car line to Camellia Grill. While there is no one signature dish, the Chef Special omelet is a real house specialty: bacon, ham, onion, Swiss and American cheeses and French fries all held together with lighter than air eggs whipped in a blender.

Frontier Restaurant
"Carne adovada, pork marinated in liquefied chiles until it absorbs the flavor and heat, is a dish that celebrates pepper power," Stern says. "The great bargain carne adovado, no less delicious for its $1.99 price, is a burrito at the Frontier. It doesn't contain any extras, just chile-infused meat intense enough to turn the tortilla that wraps it the color of a sunset."

Keaton's Barbecue
"There is fried chicken, which is crunchy-chewy-juicy bliss, and there is hot fried chicken, which just might make you swoon, not only because it is dizzying delicious but because it is thermonuclear," Stern says. "Here, after being fried to a golden crisp, the parts are dipped in simmering barbecue sauce for a hot-pepper zest. It belongs in a food group of its own."

B B Q Land
Searching street after street for quality BBQ in Santa Maria, California, we happened upon BBQ Land at 1975-A South Broadway. We were skeptical about the name, which sounded too hokey to be true, but oh, how we were wrong! This tri-tip sandwich on grilled bread exceeded our expectations exponentially. We were actually sad with every mouthful, for we knew our gastronomic ecstasy would eventually come to an end with the last bite. It was the red oak flavor and extreme tenderness that cinched the deal, and we’ll be dreaming about this slice o’ heaven until we plan our return to Santa Maria.

Steve's Pig & Ox Roast
The beef is served on kummelweck only if you specifically ask for it. These are not delicate, rosy slices of beef, but meat that is cooked through and piled high, tender and super-moist, like good pot roast. Add some horseradish from the jar at the self-serve counter and you've got yourself some good eating.
