 (July 17, 1955–1962) BACKSTORY: Sponsored by Swift’s Premium Meats, the Chicken Plantation Restaurant (also known as the Plantation House) served up Fried Chicken Dinners along the Rivers of America. The front of the restaurant resembled an old antebellum plantation home; the backside had more of a Mexican adobe styling to it. The restaurant was closed and cleared in 1962 to make way for New Orleans Square. Temporarily, there was a smaller version (pictured in a 1962 photo below) that operated out of pass-through window from a construction fence. |
