I like the diners very much, Ann. How appropriate that your show is in a diner with an owner who obviously likes your stuff.
I regularly eat at a similar place nearby- Tina's Diner in downtown Nanaimo, British Columbia. Very cool. I make a habit of trying small town eateries when I travel. I'm usually happy with the food, and it's a much more human experience than the chains. (Although there was the place that got busted for selling porcupine as chicken...)
