    Tinseltown

    Posted by jewelleryrox 29 April 2008

    I visited this diner in Leicester yesterday lunchtime and was really looking forward to it. I ordered and received my meal - the burgers were awful and tasted like a burger van burger. The burger was a chargrilled cardboard brown disc - you will not attract return visits serving burgers of such a low quality.

    I then paid £1 each for two toppings - cheese and pineapple (one four pence cheese slice and one small slice of pineapple) - a topping should cover the top of the burger not just the centre of the burger.

    My wife had a steak wrap! Soggy wallpaper wrapping up gristle and boiled, not fried, onions!!

    The standard of food is without doubt the worst I have ever experienced.

    The 50s American diner

    Posted by jewelleryrox 26 October 2006

    I happened upon a place called The 50s American Diner which is an amazing, original 1951 stainless steel American diner from Massachusetts in the National Forest, Derbyshire.

    The portions are huge just as you would imagine it to be. The decor is perfect with chrome bar stools and four-seater booths, a jukebox and waitresses in period outfits. There's a friendly atmosphere and great music.

    My children loved it - great food on a budget!
