What’s Your Lucky Wishbone Story?
“Just finished reading the Lucky Wishbone story. My Wife and I enjoyed eating there quite often, but I remember an experience from about 1970. I was there alone and sitting at the counter, had just ordered my fried chicken when someone sat down next to me. To my surprise, it was Governor Egan and I had a really enjoyable talk with him.”

My earliest memory of eating at a restaurant in Anchorage was at the White Spot when it was located at 412 C street. This was probably in 1969 or 1970. We had just moved to Alaska(Bethel) in 1968 so it was a treat to have a hamburger there back in the day. Will always remember that!
Many, many great restaurants! Anchorage was a cool place to have fun with friends and family at all the restaurants!
