Dr. Smith recalls when Columbia had White Castle wannabe

Comments re article 46490 Another progressive speaks up for White CastleRoger D Smith DMD writes:
Ed, Just a comment on the lack of "Sliders" in good old Columbia. I remember going to a trailer type diner in the present area of Pizza Hut in the late 60's. It was at a time when I was out exploring the world and I was only there a couple of times, but I think the name was Scotties. I do remember that we had tiny, square burgers late at night made in the style of White Castle and Krystal.

Your comments would be valuable. - Roger D Smith DMD
Thanks, Dr. Smith. Seems you're right, as usual. It was a memorable place, in many ways. The trailerhouse burger empire was the brainchild of a Wayne County doctor. Anyway, for a brief time, Monticello was challenging Louisville for the food franchising capital of the world at least in the trailerhouse burger joints category. And Columbia had it's own, In Walking Distance of Lindsey Wilson College. Maybe a reader will send more. Maybe a photo. -EW
