Dragon's Garden
Canton, MS
The Dragon's Garden Chinese restaurant building appears to be from the 1960s. I don't know if this is the original occupant. [map]

D'Casa Grill
Tupelo, MS
The D'Casa Grill has been at this location since at least 2008. The building previously housed a La Fiesta Brava restaurant and, before that, Dos Banditos. I don't know what was here originally. The building may be from the 1960s or 1970s. [map]

Malt Shop
Natchez, MS
The Malt Shop opened as a Dairy Queen around 1953, further down the street. By 1955, the Dairy Queen had moved to this location. It became the Malt Shop around 1963. I don't know if the Dairy Queen was originally an A-frame like these or if that roof was added later on. [map]

2019:
The Mayflower Cafe opened in 1935 and has been in continuous operation since then. By 2014, the sign had been repainted. In 2024, a new owner closed the restaurant for renovations. The sign and tile have been restored. For more, see this website. [map]
