Isaly’s

Did you know that Isaly’s was launched during the 19th century? It definitely earned a spot in American history. It was best known for the chipped chopped ham and the invention of the Klondike Bar. It was named after its founder, though advertisements claimed it meant “I Shall Always Love You Sweetheart.” It was eventually sold off until it died a slow death.

Lum’s

In 1956, this family restaurant was founded in Miami Beach as a simple hot dog stand. It slowly grew until there were four locations in 1961. Those beer-steamed hotdogs sure sound like a dream! Rapid expansion followed, and there were 400 Lum’s in 1969. Sadly, they ended up overreaching and later filed for bankruptcy. By 1982, all the original stores were closed.
