Arcade Cafe

On Monday we made our way to The Arcade, a diner that has the honor of being Memphis' oldest restaurant. It sits right in the mddle of the historic area and was like a trip back in time - complete with road trolleys!
















It is this old school and nostalgia has attracted photographers, artists, writers, and movie makers from around the world. Scenes from Mystery Train, Great Balls of Fire, The Client, The Firm, 21 Grams, Elizabethtown, Walk the Line, and My Blueberry Nights, just to name a few!















However it is most famous for being Elvis's favorite diner, complete with his own booth!

His favorite meal was deep fried peanut butter sandwiches.............explains ALOT......
















............Hubba Hubba!















We settled for their famous sweet potato pancakes - yum!
