You guys, I’m such a sucker for a night-view with neon. I love this card! Also, it is where the Royal Rib reigns supreme! 

What a pisser to find that the place is long gone. This 1986 article in the Orlando Sentinel noted in this article that after 33 years, the place was bulldozed to the ground. Vincent Price dined there! The building was constructed in 1953. Here’s another view from Swampy’s Florida and check this one out on facebook.
