Old Street Scenes

When I was a kid my mom and dad took me to Sambo's. I still remember the menu with little black Sambo and that lion. Had the pancakes. Not a politically correct restaurant these days. Then again some of the photos here one could make the same statement. The picture came out great by the way.

Pic size looks great! I ate at Sambo's as well...didn't they have "tiger milk" and "tiger butter", too?

Tiger Butter. We would put about 10lbs of 1 lb sticks of butter in a big mixer, add crushed ice and whip it into the lightweight butter that we would scoop with a little ice cream scoops to put on the pancakes.

Years ago, all the Sambo's here in Maryland turned into Dennys.

We did the same thing in the kitchen at Marshall Fields, and added maple syrup to the mix. Rolled the pancakes and filled 'em w/the maple butter like cannoli.
