“Horton Hears A Who!”, directed by Jimmy Hayward and Steve Martino, is a film of the Dr. Seuss Classic.

Set in the Jungle of Nool, Horton the Elephant (Jim Carrey) hears voices from a small speck of dust and imagines a helpless, microscopic family living on that speck. Living true to his philosophy of “a person’s a person, no matter how small”, Horton chases after the speck and comes to realize that the speck is the entire city of Who‑ville, home of the Who’s. While the jungle community thinks Horton has lost his mind, Horton must protect the Who’s from the Sour Kangaroo and her cronies, and help the Who’s band together to make their presence known.

Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurants are located all over California with at least three locations right here in the Bay Area, as well as in 14 other states and Washington D.C.
But Dan Gordon and Dean Biersch opened the original Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant in downtown Palo Alto in 1988 at the site of the historic Bijou Theatre.

A friend told me that the environment there is a very fun, so I decided to give it a try. I was happy that I had made reservations before I arrived considering the crowd of people around trying to get tables. I noticed that the atmosphere was very inviting, very much like a sports bar.
