Palms Grill resurrected May 8, 2009

The historic Palms Grill Cafe in the Route 66 town of Atlanta, Ill., reopened last month after being shuttered for more than 30 years.

I’m not sure who shot and edited this video of the Palms Grill operating again, but it’s good.

I hear a lot of folks complaining about how much Route 66 has lost, but ignore what the Mother Road has gained — or, in this case, regained — in recent years. The Palms Grill is a good example of the latter.
