Ed Exley is doing something smart, he thinks. But it turns out that he is talking to the real Lana Turner.
The Formosa Cafe, a restaurant and bar, was founded in 1925 by 1920s prize-fighter Jimmy Bernstein. The restaurant has a long history of movie star and film industry patronage due to its proximity to studio lot across the street, which began as the United Artists lot and was later owned by Warner Bros. Generations of movie stars such as Humphrey Bogart and Clark Gable have eaten meals at The Formosa. Frank Sinatra is reputed to have spent many nights at the Formosa. In 1991, the restaurant was threatened with demolition when its lease expired as plans evolved for The Lot, the soon-to-be renamed Warner Hollywood studio parking lot, and what later would become the West Hollywood Gateway shopping center. Due to concerted citizen and preservationist efforts, the restaurant was preserved in its present location as a landmark. In June 2017, The Los Angeles Times announced that the café would reopen with a new operator, the 1933 Group.
