Food Fair in Memphis?

Does anyone rememeber this place? A two story mini mall that was basically a free standing food pit(or court). They had a Krystal and a Sir Beef, that's all for now. Also the fighting chickens in a cage for a quarter. This was in the mid seventies, so probably no posts here, but it was truly a treat for us kids! BTW i think over on Summer Ave near Butler MCC.

I was just thinking about Food Fair in Memphis and decided to see if anything was posted on the Internet. My family went there when I was about 12 on a trip from the Orlando area to Denver one summer. We stopped in Memphis to visit a family friend and she took us to Food Fair. Truly, it was the precursor to a mall food court. So unique in the early 70s. I wonder how long it was in business.

I remember the Food Fair as well. I remember Pancho's and Shakey's Pizza and also the dancing chickens. I was just in that building last week. First time in 40 years. It's now a billiards hall.
