The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.

Along 66, March 2021: Springfield, Missouri, Steak 'N Shakes Sold and the Palms Grill Cafe reopens in Atlanta, Illinois

MARCH 8

The owner of the Steak 'N Shake restaurants in Springfield, Missouri, sells them.  Gary Leonard sold his six Steak 'N Shake restaurants in Springfield, including the historic one on Route 66.  This one is on St. Louis Street and was built in 1962.

I know that the whole Steak 'N Shake chain is in financial difficulty and sure hope they make it.  I am a big fan of their burgers (and sure miss the great breakfasts they used to have) and especially those milk shakes.

MARCH 9

The Palms Grill Cafe in Atlanta, Illinois, is soon to reopen in April which is great news in itself.  And, it will be hosting an upcoming "60 Minutes" interview that will be 12 minutes long.

The Palms announced closing in August because of the COVID pandemic.

It was built in 1934 and reopened in 2009.

A real trip back to the 1930s and 40s when you eat there.  Plus, we are still sad that that great Bonanza Steakhouse in nearby Lincoln closed, so now need a place in the area to eat.
