The Harland Sanders Café is a historic restaurant located in North Corbin, Kentucky. Colonel Harland Sanders, the founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken, operated the restaurant from 1940 to 1956. Sanders also developed the famous KFC secret recipe at the café during the 1940s.〔Cross, Paul., (National Register of Historic Places Nomination Form for Harland Sanders Café ) 30 April 1990. Retrieved on 2010-11-26〕 It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 7, 1990.〔 ==History== After moving to North Corbin in 1930, Sanders started a service station across the street from the present location of the Harland Sanders Café along U.S. Route 25. Sanders served meals for travelers in the back of the service station at his own dining table, which seated six people.〔(Harland Sanders Museum and Café ) Laurel County, Kentucky.

Two years later, the restaurant was destroyed by fire.〔(Harland Sanders Café and Museum ) Retrieved on 2010-11-26〕 Shortly after the fire in 1939, construction began on the present Sanders Café, along with the addition of a motel.〔 The restaurant-motel complex reopened on July 4, 1940. A new addition to the café was a model of a motel room located in the adjacent Sanders' Motel. This was used to persuade customers to spend the night at the motel.〔 Retrieved on 2010-11-26〕 Business continued to boom as it was located along U.S. 25, the main north-south route through central Kentucky. This soon changed with the completion of Interstate 75, which bypassed the restaurant and city entirely. Sanders sold the café in 1956 and began selling franchises for KFC.〔 The Harland Sanders Café was renovated and reopened in the fall of 1990 as a museum. A modern KFC was also built adjacent to the café. While at the museum, visitors can tour the office of Harland Sanders, see the kitchen where Sanders developed the KFC secret formula, and view KFC memorabilia. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Harland Sanders Café and Museum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
