Anyone remeber what that place used to be? Was it Rax or something like that?

Yes, way back in the day, it was Rax. They used to have a salad bar/lunch buffet and plastic crocodile cups for kids. But yes, it was Rax. There were a few of those across the state. Helena's is now a Chinese restaurant, I believe. I think Rax still exists in some form in the Midwest.

I'm sure that's a longer answer than you wanted, BigBruce, but I've been noticing that I've been telling long, old-man type stories lately.

Man I remember going their when I was an adult! They had a promotion for a while by a combo sandwich and get a coupon for a gallon of gas at Me and Jan's Conoco. Their roast beef sandwiches were much better than Arby's and great salad-bar, like I ate salads back then!

Wikipedia has a nice explanation of the downfall of the Rax franchise.

I am a cheese-a-holic and they had that big 40# block of cheddar tight in the middle that you could slice off of.
