The Crab Cooker in Newport Beach, California, has been a favorite of locals and tourists alike since it opened more than fifty years ago. I thought a watercolor rendition would best capture the nostalgic heritage of the restaurant

Pork roast with vegetables and apples getting ready in a large oval slow-cooker.
Pork loin with tenderloin plus potatoes, carrots, rutabaga, onions, garlic, apples, sweet peas, and a pepper-rosemary seasoning.
Came out very delicious. Cooking took about 10 hours.

on the day I forgot to push the cook button on the rice cooker
.. i truly understands the meaning of it while staring down at the forever-lighted "cook" button waiting for the rice to be cooked
while a table stood full of delicious dishes already started to get cold...

Couldn't resist the sunlight streaming in to the house. Just had to take a shot for Macro Mondays. Found this light bulb in the garage. Put it on some white paper and took a few shots :-)
The Crab Cooker is a popular Southern California restaurant specializing in seafood that is located at 22nd Street and Newport Boulevard in Newport Beach on the Balboa Peninsula.
The restaurant is known for its Manhattan-style clam chowder, skewers of scallops, crab and lobster entrees, oysters, crab and shrimp cocktail, salmon fillet and other fresh fish.
History
The Crab Cooker restaurant was founded at 28th Street and Marina when original owner Bob Roubian was offered the opportunity to take over a local fish market in August 1951. Roubian, a carpenter by trade, had helped remodel the market three years earlier and had an interest in fishing. The original 1,700-square-foot (158 m2) restaurant was adjoined by a 9,000-square-foot (836 m2) annex. The building housing the restaurant was formerly a branch of the Bank of America, whose former logo can be seen embedded in the corner of the building. The restaurant was established in 1951 and is considered a local landmark. In 1992, a second restaurant was opened in Tustin, California.
Bob Roubian, who was born in Pasadena, served as a Seabee during the Second World War. In 1955, Roubian and Cliffie Stone wrote a rockabilly song called "The Popcorn Song", proceeds from which helped pay off the restaurant's debts. Roubian died in 2017 and the restaurants are now managed by his son-in-law.
Temporary closure
In 2019, The Crab Cooker's original location in Newport Beach was demolished after construction of an adjacent condominium complex undermined the restaurant's foundations, causing major structural damage that resulted in the business's insurers declaring the building to be "unsalvageable." The building's owners decided to demolish it and rebuild on the current site. The last day of business in the original building was September 2, 2018. Construction problems delayed rebuilding by more than a year.
In 2021, the new building opened, retaining many of the features and whimsy of the original building, including the iconic fish sign that says, "Don't look up here!".
Description
The Crab Cooker restaurant is known for its casual atmosphere. The building's exterior is painted bright red. Inside, the restaurant decoration is a pastiche of unique items including paintings by famous artists, theater chandeliers, pots and pans, a wrought-iron gate, nautical equipment and a giant shark, the restaurant is popular with locals and tourists from around the world. Food is served on paper plates.
It is common to see patrons waiting in lines in the street; these lines once elevated The Crab Cooker to national headlines when advance staff for President Richard Nixon asked Roubian to allow Nixon to be seated for dinner. Roubian informed them the president would have to wait along with rest of the people, as would any president.
In popular culture
In the television show The O.C., the restaurant dubbed the "Crab Shack" is The Crab Cooker. but, in one episode, Julie Cooper (Melinda Clarke) refers to the restaurant by its real-life name.
