| This is a fairly 'authentic' American diner on Curtain Road in [[Locale Shoreditch|Shoreditch]]. It also has branches in other areas of London including [[Diner Soho, W1F 7BU|one in Soho]] and [[Diner Dalston, E8 4AH|one in Shoreditch]]. |
This is a fairly 'authentic' American diner on Curtain Road. The fact that every booth (and they are all booths) had French's mustard made [[Bec]] very happy. |

The diner serves breakfast untill 4pm and offers a variety of egg dishes, pancakes and a 'Mexican' breakfast. On [[Bec]] and Sean's visit, Sean had a bacon cheeseburger with a side of guacamole for £6.40 (the guacamole was £0.50 extra) and cheese fries - the cheese was shredded and melted into a big, fatty glump which made all the fries stick together. This is Proper and A Good Thing. Bec had a spicy beanburger for £5.50 - which, unlike many 'spicy' beanburgers was actually spicy - and served with a giant slice of tomato and rocket. Onion rings were super fat and very crispy and cost £3.00. |

On [[Bec]] and Sean's visit, Sean had a bacon cheeseburger with a side of guacamole for £6.40 (the guacamole was 50p extra) and cheese fries - the cheese was shredded and melted into a big, fatty glump which made all the fries stick together. This is Proper and a Good Thing. Bec had a spicy beanburger for £5.50 - which, unlike many 'spicy' beanburgers was actually spicy - and served with a giant slice of tomato and rocket. Onion rings were super fat and very crispy and cost £3. |
Bec also had a pistachio milkshake for £4.00 which was utterly gorgeous and a very generous amount. |

There's a branch in [[Locale Soho|Soho]] which I will visit soon to sample their breakfast. Mushroom-fearing vegetarians be warned: the only other veggie options are a taco or burrito, the filling of which is pre-mixed and contains the dreaded fungi. |
