Fifties Diner

When I travel, I love eating breakfast and lunch in diners. Especially if I’m traveling alone or on business. A diner is a great place to eat a meal by yourself. You can sit at the counter and chat with the staff, and you always get your food quick.

I can think of at least one diner in San Francisco that felt like it was stuck in the 1950s. And even if the diner itself wasn’t stuck there, I’m almost certain some of my fellow patrons were.

If they were indeed stuck in the 1950s, was the diner somehow responsible?
