The Los Angeles Public Library has a board on Pinterest dedicated to awesome vintage menus from L.A. haunts of yesteryear. We're such big fans of the account that we decided to create a follow-up our first post about it.

Our second helping of menus is a little bit kitschier than the first. We have classics like a mid-century menu from Musso and Frank, but there's also a "House of Pizza" and the Zamboanga South Seas Cafe and Nite Club on Slauson from the 1930s (and not the 1960s, as we might have guessed).
