Random Shots From The Road-Classic American Diner
Diner's evolved for the need of quick food in busy areas be it factory districts, busy city areas or along busy highways. Many of the older diners were built from converted buses or passenger rail cars. But during the 1950's with the building of the Interstate highway system combined with the prosperity of the era large scale diners started being built providing non pretentious comfort food with large mega calorie portions and heart attack caffeine levels in their coffee to wake up sleep deprived patrons with a long day of work ahead of them all at a reasonable price. Spending nearly fifty years traveling though the whole lower 48 I have stopped at far more diners than I possibly remember. Oh course not all diners are great and some are down right horrible but when in doubt always use the parking lot test. A good quality diner especially by evening should have a nearly full parking lot. Go to a diner or any restaurant for that matter by early evening and there is only a handful of cars and it's usually for a reason and it's best to pass it by.
