Despite the proliferation of fast food chains, the humble diner has retained its own character and identity.

I love diners, and this book has some good recipes to try. I only wish it also had photos of diners, especially the well-loved chrome ones from the past.

I was so excited to see recipes that my family members used way back when.. This recipe book will be one that I will be using quite frequently! Very impressive list of many of the comfort foods one desires when they want to "go back to the olden days of eating at their home away from home dinner table!"

Diner food

We all love diner food. My favorite, fried green tomatoes, is in this book along with some other favorites. Recipes/directions/pictures included. Every recipe has a picture! That's hard to find in any cookbook.

Memorable Diner Classics

Sure, you can find a lot of these classics in your neighborhood diner. But doing it from scratch at home with fresh ingredients, careful attention to prep, and tried and true brands is even more rewarding. And delicious.

Not Great

Surprised by these recipes, they taste so so. I thought the meatloaf and Salisbury steak would be better. Ingredients were also different than most family recipes.

Several typos and references to other recipes that are not included. A good editor would be a great addition to this book.
