Bridges Loc: Memphis, Charleston SC, now Nazareth PA

This may get kicked to the photo gallery, but this post is about food, not photography.

Go to your bookshelf and check your dictionary for greasy spoon. It may show a photo of Abe's Diner!

On my trip from Memphis last week to Charleston, SC, I ran across Abe's Diner in Corinth, MS. This place is one of a kind! It is revered by locals who fill up the seats on a constantly rotating basis. Inside is a long counter with about 12 to 15 stools and they are always full. When it was my time to sit I was welcomed like a neighbor by the others already seated. There was good conversation between everyone there and they recommended a burger with fresh fries which are cut daily. They also recommended a shaker of spices to shake over the fries.

The food was good and the atmosphere was even better. If anyone passes through Corinth, I recommend a stop at Abe's.

I was wearing my VN Vet hat and one gentleman seated beside me left. On his way out he handed me a jar of the french fry spices and thanked me for my service.

Sometimes good experiences will pop up if we keep our eyes open as we drive down the highway of life!

Your photos captured a great, one of a kind place perfectly! Would love to spend an evening with Abe. Oh, the stories he could probably tell.

I wonder if it has ever been featured on the Food Network's Diners Drive-Ins and Dives. If not it should be.

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.

I could eat there! They oftentimes have better food than the fancy places.

Your pics tell a great story and the newspaper clipping documents the details of similar places I have visited and still dream of visiting.
Thank you for posting and sharing such a wonderful place with your UHH friends.
Your entire post makes me . . . . .
