Re: Coffee bars, diners, forgotten roadside eateries

Surprisingly one of the juiciest and most flavorful steaks I've ever eaten also!

Wow, I'd love to see that when it's finished! What's your involvement with the documentary?

I second what AC states. I have refrained from commenting. Eating vicariously is no fun.

That does seem like a great blog.  Seems she's actually done some research.  I'll add it to the "blogs that I actually really want to read but probably never will get around to" list.

Re: Coffee bars, diners, forgotten roadside eateries

Sounds like a cool gig man!

You might've already seen this, but here's the original 1966 NBC broadcast that I guess the new documentary is based on:

Re: Coffee bars, diners, forgotten roadside eateries

^ superb stuff there Oliver, that's exactly the documentary that's the source of this doco.

A cool gig indeed but a bit weird.... two NY film makers with a film about the American South, soundtracked by some blokes in London and edited by a French fella based in LA.

Re: Coffee bars, diners, forgotten roadside eateries

Yeah that is strange. I'm kind of a film snob (that's sort of my background also) and I find that most modern documentaries are really poorly done and were it not for vested interest in certain subjects, I wouldn't give a lot of them the time of day. People are often far too forgiving of a film that happens to be about something they're partial too, despite the film itself being a clumsy, artless, inept production that's often wasted on the medium. I'm looking forward to seeing how this one turns out though; I'll have another layer to listen for and appreciate knowing your involvement.

A shame to see a place like that go, Oliver.
