Restaurant Name: Sanders Cafe
Colonel Harlan Sanders was my kind of man. His resume included: farm hand, streetcar conductor, soldier, and railroad fireman. He studied law by correspondance and parcticed in Justice of the Peace courts, operated an Ohio River steamboat ferry, sold tires, and operated a service station. At the age of 65, now retired, he took his $105 per month Social Security Check and started Sanders Cafe. The year was 1939. You know the rest of the story. KFC is now established in 80 countries and territories of the world, serving 6 billion pieces of fried chicken anually.
We recently took our grandchildren through Corbin and stopped in at the site of the original Sanders Cafe. Next to the restaurant is a museum which preserves Sanders first kitchen with much of the original equipment and decor. It also gives highlights of this amazing American success story. You'll never view KFC the same.
Favorite Dish: Nothing beats the KFC original receipe, with that secret blend of 11 herbs and spices.
