The DINER.

Horse is still somewhat of a delicacy in Sweden-
cooked on the rare side and thinly sliced with a smear of horseradish... mmmmmmmm....
Of course it was also a universal wartime meat.

I heard about that BT. A friend of mine tried that once and he said it was very good but, it wasn't very cheap.

Horseradish on horse.... hahaha, sounds like a perfect fit.

Geez, next thing I am going to hear is that skunk is a delicacy somewhere.
"Yes, I'll have the skunk ala King with a side of horsey sauce please."

There are lots of Diners around these parts (east coast) but they unfortunately don't have the same service as you're discribing.
There is a Diner right up the street from my house, it's always been the local hangout - the food isn't great and the service depends on your waitress, but everyone who works there knows us, and the jukebox still runs.

For anyone in MD who gets the chance - A close friend of mine (Well, her family) runs The Plum Crazy Diner and it's the best Diner experience I've had to date - Good food, Good service, great atmosphere.


Is anyone in here familiar with Johnny Rockets? Its a relatively new fast food chain with a 50s theme - realistic Diner style, the staff all wears those funny little hats, and there are oldies playing nonstop (I admit to a charleston while waiting in line for a milkshake)
Honestly - the food is unimpressive, But they have good milkshakes, and the atmosphere is fun if you're with a group.








I can't decide If I like it or not. If I'm just stoping in for a soda, it's nice - but it's almost too retro. I'd feel silly walking in there wearing vintage clothes.

I am not sure if they are everywhere but there is a small chain in California called Lori's Diner that has that classic diner experience. The best part is that they have coat and hat hangers at the end of every booth. The food isn't bad either. The hamburgers and such are referred to as the "best around" by my mother who grew up in the golden age. So I suppose she would know the difference.

Once you have children, you say, "let's go for a drive in the country," and boom! You're making sandwiches.

Or being sent to the store for milk and bread, since you're in the mood to take a drive.... Regards! Michaelson
