Summary

Description Dell Rhea's Chicken Basket in Willowbrook (1946). It was a popular lunch stop along Route 66. The story goes that two women entered a gas station in 1938, offering to trade their recipe for fried chicken in exchange for a promise to use their chickens to make it. The Chicken Basket originally operated out of this gas station at a lunch counter, but became popular enough to warrant a new building in 1946. During winters, owner Irv Kolarik would flood the roof of the restaurant and hire local youths to skate on top of it.
