Duke's, a beloved restaurant in Malibu, survived January's Palisades fire, but is now facing significant setbacks due to mudslides triggered by heavy rains. Mudslides transformed Las Flores Canyon Road into a river of mud, flooding the restaurant's parking lot and causing damage. These natural disasters pose economic difficulties for the 130 employees, out of whom six have lost their homes in the fire. The road closure in front of Duke's complicates emergency and cleanup efforts, causing further hardship for the historic establishment that honors Hawaiian surfing legend Duke Kahanamoku.
Duke's, the iconic seaside restaurant in Malibu, was largely untouched by January's Palisades fire, but recent mudslides from heavy rains have significantly delayed its reopening.
Manager Jimmy Chaves reported that the mudslides have created additional economic challenges for the restaurant's employees, as six were already displaced by the fire.
