Looks like a great place! I bet they have a great dessert cooler full of stuff that I shouldn’t eat but would devour. I’d probably order the meatloaf special first. Zips diner had a decent meatloaf special.Citizen B wrote: ↑Thu Apr 01, 2021 4:35 pm I would like to go here for dinner tonight: http://lileks.com/rest/exteriors/4.html

That’s the one. I’ve ate there a lot... breakfast every day Monday-Friday and dinner a lot of evenings as well for a couple of summers.Citizen B wrote: ↑Thu Apr 01, 2021 4:48 pmAre you talking about the Zip's Diner in Connecticut?Riff89 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 01, 2021 4:45 pmLooks like a great place!

I forget what town it's in, maybe Vernon. It's in what we call the Quiet Corner of Connecticut. I ate there twice. Good food and good service. The first time I ate there it was in the middle of nowhere. The second time I ate there there were shopping centers across the street.

I’m a sucker for a good diner! It’s a pretty happening place now. There is also a good Mexican restaurant Right behind zips. I enjoy working in Connecticut especially the quiet corners and places with oddball things to see.Citizen B wrote: ↑Thu Apr 01, 2021 5:38 pmI forget what town it's in, maybe Vernon.

I miss Greek owned diners. A rarity in this part of NY state. What locals call diners, my wife and I call restaurants or cafes or eateries. Nothing like we grew up with and nothing like eating a stack of pancakes under the glow of chrome and neon!
I wonder if "blame Wildcat" will become a theme here? - Fr_Tom
The Greeks up my way all own pizza shops. More specifically house of pizza. It feels like every town has a house of pizza.
