Catch the Results in Reno at Shanghai Lows

Shanghai Low was a very famous Chinese restaurant in Reno, Nevada. They were based down on North Center Street. I’ve blogged about the restaurant before and it’s rather east-west Thanksgiving menu. Shanghai Low was always coming up with new ways to attract custom – such as this attempt in 1924 to sell you drinks and food while you listened to the wireless reports of the Presidential Election. Presumably those that voted for Coolidge stayed for the dancing; those who voted for the Democrat John W. Davis or the Progressive Party’s Robert La Follette went home early. I’m sure if Shanghai Low were still on business they’d have an inauguration day special on the menu!
