[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Silver Diner is fine. "Authenticity" is overrated given the topic, and the parsing over whether the diner has to be in a dining car or Greek-owned is dumb. [/quote] Look, a place like Silver Diner is a corporate facsimile of what an actual diner is. If my out-of-the-country relatives wanted an American experience, I would give them a real one, not the fake copy. The real American experience is the immigrant-owned diner or the train car diner with the waitress who has been there for 40 years. I suppose you could make the argument that the corporate facsimile is the MOST American of them all, and you wouldn't be wrong, but that isn't where I would choose to take guests.[/quote]
