Used to eat it all the time for breakfast in Massachusetts. My friends mother used to make it and cook it over night. What a smell and the taste was even better. Can't find it in Miami.

I could catch the Lowell St bus in front of the diner. Glad to see the diner is still in operation. when I was a kid (1940's) there was a crossing guard who raised and lowered the gates on Central St. the railroad yard was very busy as the leather industry was in full swing then.

Next time I'm in Mass (I know, when will that be?) I gotta go here. I may not be a "foodie", but I like a good breakfast in an old-school place. This is my kind of place.

The times I have been there, the food was good and the service friendly. I kind of wish they had earlier hours (like 6:00am) as I am an early person, even on the weekends. I also like the new "porch" they added to the kitchen end of the building. I need new photos for Diner Hotline (www.dinerhotline.com) Seems like Jim & Judy are getting it right and I hope they can continue to do so.

I grew up in diners thanks to a father who supplied them with some of their raw ingredients. I'm going to have to stop here when I'm up your way. Thanks for the information.
