My eyes went straight to the pork tenderloin.

our local Chinese place charges $5 for a fried egg, if added to noodles.......... a plate of Singapore noodles is $26............. we do not eat there.
Don’t blame you for that. In a small U.S. town where a burger meal at DQ or McDonalds is pushing $16, the tastiest and healthiest meal is at our Taste of China restaurant. You get a nice size serving of cashew chicken and rice for about $12.

That looks like a classic Southern breakfast diner… It's obviously deeply embedded in the local culture.
Indeed, THANK-YOU for your service.
I love local diners, especially the ones in mid-size towns and cities of the Northeast where I ate when I was traveling to train school photographers. Some of those had extensive menus, bakeries, salad bars, and ridiculously low prices for decent food. They were great when I needed to fly my expense report under the accountants' radar.
If you ever come through Greensboro or High Point, NC, stop at a Carolina's Diner. It's a local chain with predictably decent diner food and a '50s – '60s atmosphere.

It's good to know that places like this are still around.
I hope he does't franchise.

Beautiful pictures and remarkable story. There is a lot more that food here. I would love to eat there, I love places like that. I bet the waitress even called you "honey" I wonder if they sell a lot of brains. The price is right if a person would want to try them.
Thank you for your service.

Great set! Pure Americana! As fast food restaurants close down because people are rejecting their overcharging for tasteless food, let's hope places like this continue to thrive.
You are being kind calling it ‘food’.
