Restaurants of yesteryear

What Restaurants did you grow up around? I'm not talking super fancy and yes fast-food counts. What distinctive memories do you associate with them?

Mine?

Taco Via-(the lit up menu of the various taco plates displayed on the wall), WhiteCastle-On a paper plate with fries and Pepsi, Arthur Treachers(off Noland), Tippins(off Noland), Perkins(the free toy well), Country Deli(awesome local deli to Blue Springs heated sandwiches on Sourdough buns), Zarda BBQ and Dairy, FunHouse Pizza(of Course)(Dark. Video- Games,Electonic Riding Bull and 25-cent Taco night) Annes Sante Fe.

Keep in mind I never see these anymore living in Georgia.

I think I've mentioned this before but I'm going to bitch anyway.
Almost all of the original Omaha steak houses are gone. The last caniglias is closing down this month. That'll only leave Johnny's Cafe, Anthony's and Brother Sebastian's.
Everything else has made way for shit holes like the Texas Road House, apple-****ing-bees or another goddamned outback.

I hate to say it but this place was better when the mob was around.

I don't know if this has been mentioned but way back in the day I remember a place in the basement area of Blue Ridge Mall that served hot ham and cheese or beef and cheese sandwiches. I believe it was called 'Don's World of Beef'. Loved that taste!

When I was a kid, my parents used to take us to this place called Po Folks , I believe it was in Independence, that I used to love. They had awesome fried chicken, although I was probably 5 or 6 years old so who knows if it was actually good.

There's still a few of those around here, even though the ringleader is in federal prison.

Not really a "chain" but a cartel that ran little Greek-style steakhouses in small, south central Iowa towns.

Po Folks was an interesting case study in restaurant success and failure.

They started out very generous in their portions and very well prepared. They were so busy they had folding chairs set up, about 25-30 for overflow.

And slowly they got skimpier and lazier and the crowds dried up. Looks like they are still in Florida, but they're long gone from the midwest.

I remember that place. Never ate there though.

Another one I just remembered, was King's Food Host. They were mostly in Nebraska around Omaha and Lincoln, but there was one in Raytown too I believe.

The Cheese Frenchee was the best! We used to always go there when we were visiting my grandparents. And on your birthday, they would bring you a little cake with trick candles on it.

Ahhh, the memories...

Who remembers Zyder Z's in KC? It was a giant windmill...often referred to as the windmill restaurant. It was located around 103rd and State Line 40/45 years ago before 435 went through there.

Yes, there was also a Don's World of Beef in downtown KC.

Three of my favorites that are gone now:

1) Italian Gardens Downtown. Old school italian food. Pictures of Sinatra on the wall.

2) Broasted Chicken, 66th and Blue Ridge in Raytown. Served out of a shack, excellent chicken and broasted potatoes.

3) Stephenson's Apple Farm: Used to be at US 40 and Lee's Summit Rd. Gone. Now it's a Quik Trip.
