Sunday Special - Diner Lingo
It's a shame that there aren't many real Diners around anymore, at least not
where I live. They were so rich in atmosphere, including their own colorful
lingo that was yelled back and forth between waitress and cook. Can you
figure out what it all meant?
(Note; this could be the toughest 'Special' ever... I decided to look at it as a "Learning Experience", lol))
