The rise and fall of the American diner
New Jersey is the Diner Capital of America, which has more than America’s other US states. However, even in New Jersey, traditional, chrome -covered Diners seem to disappear. Increased food costs, labor shortage and competition from seating chains such as cracker barrels and Ihops made it difficult to be at work. Nevertheless, Tops, the most dense restaurant in the state, still serves 13,000 people a week. And Summit Diner, one of the oldest of the state, still stung pancakes and taylor gamboat rolls from his small grill. So what happened to All-American Diner? And how did he keep the tops and the great work of the summit alive against upright possibilities?
