OMG!!! I can't believe the prices. But, I suppose everything is relative. In the '50s, for some people it would be a treat to have a steak and chicken for $2.
I had to google Columbia Inn, I don't remember ever eating there. I also don't remember the building according to the pics in the Star Advertiser. I should, shouldn't I????
