Who remembers MacDonald’s? Not to be confused with McDonald’s, this restaurant occupied the space on Huntsville’s Main Street where Big Bear is today. In 1952, a steak the size of a plate was $3.95 (a lot of money in those days). In 1958, they started offering soft serve ice cream. What else can you tell us about MacDonald’s, Doppler readers?
