I like really great bad food. Here are some on my list:
The Yankee Doodle - New Haven - greasy little burgers with a slab of oleo - not butter oleo. Vanilla cokes - squirt of syrup, squirt of vanilla, seltzer - stirred not shaken.
Louie's Lunch - Invented the burger here. Don't ask for ketchup.
The White Hut - Springfield, MA - heaps of grilled onions on everything.
Ted's World Famous - Meriden, CT - Steamed Cheeseburgers. You simply cannot get more cholesterol than this is 6 ounces of food.
The Miss Florence Diner - Florence, MA - Everything from Trout Almondine to Rapaho (Inidian Pudding).
