When we travel we like to eat
in restaurants unique to the place we're visiting. That way you can get a feel for the town and
the people in it. Driving through the mountains we happened upon this old 50's
diner. And we fell in love with it. Look at the decor. Just like the places we remember from the
good old days. The food was wholesome, like mom makes... but basic, with no
added frills. And it tasted good. The cost was affordable, not too pricey. And
the waitresses were down to earth and friendly as can be. It made for a wonderful
meal in an interesting setting. NOT like going to a chain restaurant, at all.
THIS BEARY COOL GUY GREETED US
WHEN WE WALKED IN THE DOOR
DON'T YOU LOVE THE RED AND WHITE SEATS
AND CHECKERBOARD TILED FLOOR?
AND LOOK WHAT THEY MADE A GUM MACHINE OUT OF
DON'T YOU LOVE THE WINDOWS?
ON THE OTHER SIDE WERE MORE TABLE AND CHAIRS.

That's definitely my kind of place! I love the 50's decor and the food looks fantastic!
what a fun place and the food looks good too!
That would be a place I'd like too. Everything looks clean and shiny too. I've been in some diners that tend to look a little shabby even though their food is out of this world. There you have the best of both.
Like you, I do enjoy the local places and they are sometimes so much better than the fancy ones or chain stores for sure.
Good food is always a wonderful bonus on a trip. It pays to find out where those spots are.
I love to eat in diners - good food - and a lot of it! lol sandie
WE try different places also. Trying to get the feel of the area and it's traditions and customs. We have disappointed at times, but most of the time very satisfied.
You were blessed here and I enjoyed the trip. I could have eaten part of that omelet! It looks good!!!

When we traveled on vacation, I just loved eating at various places. Most were good.Terry thank you for for the tips you gave me on the eppley treatment.. It prepared me sort of.
Taryterre,
How'd you know I LOVE DINERS! This one is so cool. Yes, I love the red seats and the black and white floors. Diners are so fun, and I love it when they play the 50's music. I was born in the 60's, but there is something about the 50's that makes my heart glad. Such carefree days. Your omelet looks so yummy.
Love,

Looks like my kind of place!! Love it!!
OOPS...you had commented on my blog about the "donkey dicks" and I accidently hit the "spam" button instead of the "publish" button. Sorry about that. Hope it doesn't go against you on Blogspot.com :-(
Looks like a place I would love.
I love the revival of the 50s diners, especially if they play music to go along with the decor.
I'm a diner fan, too, and there are still lots of them in New York City. There's one a block from me. It's gotten fancier and more expensive, but it still has the same long, long menu.
Looks like a small town place. We have one here in Lincoln that has good food and tastes like home cooking. I don't go to resturant's (SP) much any more cause I am getting more shaky and sloppy in my old age.
