...nation's best, such as Perino's, Scandia, the Bistro and Duke's Glenn Cove. New nightspots are proliferating (the most popular: The Daisy and The Other Place); but there is virtually no such thing as nightclub hopping. The clubs are so far apart that, as Actor Peter Falk complains, "You have to pack water," and Los Angeles is an early-to-bed, early-to-rise town where many executives have to be up in time to tune in with New York's three-hour head start on the business...

Intense, slow-burning and confidently virile, he has a star actor's natural instinct for arousing curiosity about what he will do next. Parks pulls attention to himself like a vagrant, possibly savage tomcat whose animal responses need not be understood to be interesting.
