Triple D: Diners, Diners, and Diners

      Its 11 PM on a Friday night, you have had a few beers and are craving a 4 cheese omelette with salsa and sour cream.  You think to yourself, "where could i possibly get this?"  and that answer is quite obvious... Your local Diner.  Diners are a trademark of New Jersey and while other states have diners, its not like that of the ones in Jersey.  Ever since I was a young boy, when my family couldn't decide where to go eat for dinner, we would always agree on one location, our local diner; The Prestige Diner.  Now, I know what many of you are thinking, its just like any diner in our states or somewhere I've been, but to the people of New Jersey its much more than that.  Diners give us a homey and comfortable feeling regular restaurants cant mimic, maybe its because they usually are owned by families and provide a great atmosphere for the eaters or maybe its how you are able to get basically what ever you are craving at that time.  The great thing that we know as Jerseyans is that no matter where you are in our beautiful state, if your hungry and want to feel welcome, go into any local diner and they will make you feel right at home.  Get a cheeseburger, maybe a panini with chicken and chipotle, whichever your little heart desires.  But no this.  In our local diners, you will truly understand what it means to feel right at home in good ol Jersey.
