Its's a diner...so typical Formica table tops and red booths...all good...ordered an omelet, a side of bacon to share...they put on my plate? The three egg omelet as fine, nothing better than home (actually worse), the bacon good, the toast seemed barely toasted and I was given a tiny little vile orange marmalade for two pieces of barely toasted cold toast?...NOTE: Not everyone likes orange marmalade. Extensive menu and thought I had ordered one of the safest options...for...
