How many “Diner, Drive-ins, & Dives” have you been to?

A couple here and there. I worked with a couple of chef's that were featured though.

Mike Kulick, the owner/chef of The Tattooed Moose was a bartender at 39 Rue de Jean back in the early 2000s when I was cutting my teeth in the kitchen.

Chris Stewart, chef of The Glass Onion was a sous chef @ FIG when I did my stint there.

I love watching the show to get idea for food labs I can do with my students.

Mahoneys
The shed in Mississippi
Maine diner
The lobster shanty in Salem

The OG Shed - wasn’t worth the hype.

Round Rock Donuts: Round Rock Tx. I didn’t know what I thought the donuts would taste like but honestly I thought Krispy Kreme or even Mary Lee’s tasted as good or better.

Friend,

May the peace of the Lord find you one day. Hopefully when you’re gasping your last breath as you choke on onion sausage.

About 15.

Had an app that listed them and you could select the ones you have been to but it’s not supported anymore. It won’t even open so I can see my list.

If we’re on a road trip we try and eat at one rather than a chain food place.

I mean most places use some sort of food service. You can order quality stuff from here and cook it well.
