Default Shangri-La

I held many different jobs at the Shangri-La (later Brickyard Mountain Inn), from dishwasher, salad boy, bus boy, maintenance, rope tow operator; to name some, but not all. I worked there while in high school and college from 1967 through 1971.

George and Mary Spanos were the owners. In addition, I remember Bob White, who ran the front desk and Manny, the bartender. I worked maintenance with George and Leroy Stilling (?); who were brothers.

There was an exceptional Greek pastry chef named Dennis who made the most incredible French pastry from scratch. There was a chef who worked at night named Earl.
I'd love to hear more about the people I worked with, as well as any stories.
