Do you have the date and nut bread Recipe from between 1955-1960?
It was served at the tables at the Howard Johnson restaurants
HoJo’s was the original “fast casual” restaurant — one of the only restaurants where you didn’t have to dress up, and pretty much the only one that was kid-friendly back in the day. They were our go-to dinner spot when we were on vacation. Their lemon ice cream (not sherbet) was amazing.
