Is this a groovy building, or what? It's the Skylark Diner in the nearby town of Edison, where Dave and I went to dinner with our friend Bill on Monday night. I've been driving past this place for months thinking, "I really need to go there," being a huge fan of mid-century architecture. I think this is actually a newer restaurant made to look mid-century, but never mind -- it's still cool.
(Check out these photos.)
The food was interesting -- it's not your typical diner fare. It was a little more artistic. I had a lemongrass-marinated turkey burger with grilled pineapple and mango salsa. Awesome!
That hardly sounds like diner fare. I love the look of the building. So retro! Who knew there would be so many cool things like this in NJ?!
ReplyDeleteits a very groovy diner
ReplyDeleteand clearly has a rather groovy menu
My first job out of high school was in a place that looked similar. Memories of the 60s for those of us who can remember the 60s.
