It's hard to believe it's been 30+ years since Corky & Lenny's Restaurant-Deli at Cedar-Center closed, but it has. I worked at both the Cedar-Center store and the newer store in the Village Square shopping center in Woodmere, from 1975 to 1994, and have plenty of memories of both - even met my wife at the Village Square store in 1978! This video has random shots of the people who made this store such an amazing Cleveland institution for so long - the customers, the employees, and owners and their families. This is one hell of a trip down memory lane - enjoy!
