How Tiny Lou’s Restaurant Turned Its X-Rated History into Its Plush, Neon-Lit Future | Bon Appétit
"Lou may have gotten the name, but the Clermont’s most famous dancer-in-residence is Anita Rae Strange, a.k.a. Blondie. Nicknamed for her trademark platinum wig, she’s been performing for more than three decades and is still going strong at 61. Pastry chef Claudia Martinez pays homage in the form of dessert: the Ode to Blondie is a brown butter blondie with buttermilk ice cream, hazelnut crémeux, and curried bananas flambé. “Blondie is simply a classic,” she says. “Everyone in Atlanta knows who she is, and she has not changed or tried to be anything else for anyone.”" - ByAngela Hansberger
