Palomino Pillows
Description: Palomino was a product of Restaurants Unlimited, the Seattle operator that brought us Kincaid’s. RUI, as it is known, has gone through creative peaks and valleys (more valleys) in the last two decades, but in the day was pumping out good restaurants. This was before the locavore era, before the anti-corporate backlash, when the Hennepin Theater District was nascent and Palomino was its watering hole.
Description: Born in Sonora, Mexico, and raised in Los Angeles, Carlos Palomino epitomized tenacity both in and out of the ring. After serving in the U.S. Army, Palomino turned professional in 1972 while simultaneously earning a degree in recreation administration from Long Beach State. In 1976, he captured the WBC Welterweight Championship by defeating John H. Stracey in London. Palomino made seven successful title defenses against world-class opposition before losing the crown to Wilfred Benítez in 1979. Retiring with a 31-4-3 record, the Hall of Famer went on to succeed as a Hollywood actor, advocate, and boxing administrator.
