I remember this. There was another one or two Burger Chefs around but I can't place them.

There was one on the west side of Airline somewhere near Hollywood/Greenwell. We used to stop there on the way back from Old River.
Also another on Florida Blvd across from Bon Marche.

That was the first one on Plank
@ Hollywood. The later one on Plank near Airline featured the "add your own toppings" I believe. Hazy memories, fwiw.

Yes, it was down from Ourso's and next to Fidelity Bank. Used to stop there after Istrouma Jr final exams.

Anybody remember Globe on Florida? It was a grocery store next to a sort of downscale K Mart. I went there once when I was about 10. I thought it was the filthiest place I'd ever seen.

When I was 4 or 5 we were going to pick up dad at the airport and stopped in that Burger Chef.
As we were reaching for our food the big arse light fixture above us fell on our table! My sisters hand was trapped under it. Would have been a legal battle these days but I don't even think we sent the food back, lol...
