I love diners. I love eating in them, drinking in them, hanging out in them, writing them and even hosting comedy shows in them. Being in a diner really makes you feel like you’re on the set of a movie. I am sad that so many of them continue to close, or are at risk of closing, so I do my best to visit as much as I can. I like 7th Avenue Diner in Park Slope, Triple Decker Restaurant in Greenpoint and Kellogg’s in Williamsburg where me and my friend Johnny host a monthly comedy show.

Whenever possible, I try to conduct my business in diners. The ideal backdrop for meetings, dates, fights, parent visits, co-working, break ups, meeting internet friends IRL, dining alone, disassociating after therapy, crying in public. Truly a one-size-fits-all venue

Didn’t know this ab myself until yesterday. I don’t get suuuper excited about food very often, which makes it more of a stand out when I rlly rave about a meal or food I ate. recently ive told my bf about 3 diff places but his sister pointed out that they all happen to be diners ..?!!! Love that for me honestly cuz consistency is hard to find .. btw the places r golden diner (tuna melt + green tea coffee cake), s&p diner (strawberry milkshake) and Thai diner (not rlly a traditional diner but everything is good lol). Anyway 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️

Don’t get me wrong, I love going to the beach in the summer but something about swimming holes hits different. There’s a sense of real nostalgia and joy that captures the true essence of summer. I grew up in Minnesota also known as the Land of 10,000 Lakes, so maybe this is a way to connect with my roots. There are lots of swimming holes to choose from even as close as New Jersey. One of my favorites is more-so a lake but it’s surrounded by mountains and has a hot dog stand. It’s called Bellayre Beach and it will make you feel like a kid again.
