We have no idea why the owner of the restaurant took The Happy Tiger as a theme – maybe it was a nickname? However, the artist who created the menu cover had great imagination and created a very handsome tiger couple as diners.
We believe this menu from The Happy Tiger, in Norridge, Illinois, is from the late 1950s or early 60s.
If we find out more information, we will update.
