Dwight Swanson collects home movies. And when I mean 'collects', I mean like has created a museum of the things (more about this tomorrow). In addition of his love of Super 8, Dwight is also quite the connoisseur when it comes to diners. Tomorrow, Dwight will ramble poetic on this love; but as a teaser, here is a list he put together of the 13 best diners in the contiguous 48.
13 Diners I have loved (in a roughly chronological order):
L.A. Diner, Boulder, CO
Denver Diner, Denver, CO
Highland Park Diner, Rochester, NY
A-1 Diner, Gardiner, ME
South Street Diner, Boston, MA
Modern Diner, Pawtucket, RI
Norm’s Diner, Groton, CT
Michigan Street Diner, Milwaukee, WI
Boulevard Diner, Dundalk, MD
Hollywood Diner, Baltimore, MD
Mayfair Diner, Philadelphia, PA
Zip’s Diner, Dayville, CT
Hollywood Diner, Dover, DE

a blog about food and the people who eat it
What's for dinner?
Hungry?
This is a blog about food. What it looks like. What it smells like. What it tastes like. What it feels like. And what it sounds like when it's cooking. This blog is about people who eat food. About those who eat it, and those who maybe can't eat it, and those who waste it too. This blog is about those who have plenty of it and those who could use more of it. This is a blog about food.

Actually, I don't know if I necessarily consider these the "best" (though I'd fight anyone who doesn't love the A-1), they're just the ones I have the strongest fond reminiscences of.
i'm a pretty serious fan of the Papermoon in baltimore..
