I Miss These

I'm not sure why the west coast lacks a diner culture; they're cheap and delicious, and once you pick your diner, that's your seat at the counter, those are your friends, and your waitress knows your order. And they've got homemade pies and those thin little diner burgers, but I almost always go for the ham, egg, and cheese on white. Order that in California and you'll get ham and eggs with toast and hash browns. Put it in a sandwich, people! That's where the magic with the cheese happens. Oh, and a large diet coke, please. Breakfast of champions.
