        I know there are a few Ponderosa restaurants left, but I miss their heyday. I worked there after school in 87-88, and cheese sticks and the salad bar were my my major food groups. My employee discount was half-off meals and all the free fountain sodas I could guzzle.

              not sure if anyone mentioned it and it may still be around but not around here anymore. What about The Picadilly? Never liked the place but haven't seen one in a long time. They were always in Malls I think.

                I knew it was a franchise, but thought it was more of a regional chain, I guess it was spread from coast to coast...and even beyond...



                Like I previously said, we went there as a family primarily for the fried chicken, we liked it better than Kentucky Fried Chicken.

                  Yeah I think they're gone. There use to be one in Decatur and another in Huntsville.

                    There's one still here in Montgomery. And the website says there is one in Mobile, Tuscaloosa and Huntsville in Parkway Place Mall. I haven't been to ours in a 100 years.
