Do you mean the about:newtab page with the 3x3 grid of tiles with recently visited web pages?
See this article about the New Tab page (about:newtab):
The built-in page can be customized by dragging bookmarks to the various thumbnail areas, but it doesn't (currently) come with popular website links. More info on the built-in new tab page:
You might have been using a "speed dial" / "fast dial" type add-on previously. If you search on the Add-ons site and check the screen shots of the types of pages they create, perhaps you can find that same one again.
By the way, what was involved in the restore? Sometimes Windows will create a folder named:
C:\Windows.old\
which may contain your old Firefox profile (settings) folder.
