I Only Ate There Once
previous / next (10-28-09)And now it is gone.
This charming little diner/luncheonette is no longer. I am really bummed. It was not exactly close to my home. It was really tiny and didn't "look" like much on the outside but it was charming inside and had great food. The one time I ate there I had a really awesome burger. It was one of the best burgers I ever had. Mark had eaten breakfast there a few times and said the breakfasts were really awesome too. This is a really sad sign of the times. Chef Ed...If you have just relocated and see this post by some miracle, please tell me where you have gone.

looks to be a quaint little place, Laurie. Great capture.
Wow, shame its no more. The image actually really made me want to know about the place.
Oh it does look like one of those places that would have LOTS of regulars. Sorry that it has closed...scary times we are in.
this place looks great!
really a nice place for a cup of coffee :)
Wonderful! Look at those stool covers!
Awesome ambience. The light is very special there.
OMG, the light in this is GORGEOUS!!! It's so sad to see such wonderful and quirky places disappear...
Looks like a nice restaurant with great character. That's a shame. You captured the essence of it well.
Great shot of Americana. Shame its closed.
Wonderful capture, the exposure is just spot on here. I like the Americana feel here.
Nice atmosphere in this cafe. Nice natural light coming from the window.
you did great capturing the warmth of this scene.. very nice work.. :)
Looks great Laurie. Personal touch in every little detail. Nice capture.
This looks nice. At least through your lens.
I hope the chef will see your post and invite you for a burger in his new place.
Nice composition!
Me gusta la iluminacion del entorno, le da un toque acojedor.
Saludos.
That is sad, what a sweet little diner! Great lighting and perspective:)
Beautiful light-scene. Looks very old.
I don't know if this is a little hole in the wall, but those are the best places to get some tasty food and, if you go enough times, get to know the people. I'd love to just sit in one of those and take photos all day!
Wow looks like it was a really cool place. Sad to hear it is closed now :(
Lovely inviting place to enjoy a relaxing cup of coffee, real shame it's closed. Great patterns, especially the seat covers. Excellent capture.
I just hate when the terrific, quaint wonderful places disappear. Its so sad that so many small businesses have to close. I hope the chef has gone someplace else and you can find him.
Love the atmosphere this shot shows.
A shame this charming place has closed. Really is an interesting momento of the place.
It really looks inviting and you have captured this atmosphere very nice. Too bad that it has now closed. Great capture, Laurie
very nice ambiance
Looks like a great place. I always love and appreciate the stories that accompany your images.
I love the light in this one, it feels and looks very natural.
Laurie! I agree with you pretty sad that this kind place to missing in our life there is always a place that is in trouble that can disappear probably because of the financial Gray
I love shots like these! There's so much to see here! I never get tired from scenes like these :)
I think this scene is beautifully lit. Nice job! I'll bet there is a story behind each one of those objects on the wall.
Love the mood you've created in this composition. A pity that things like that change...
