Waterloo, NY
So on our way home the next day, we decided to hit a few wineries, and perhaps a farmer's market for some fresh veggies to bring home. We stopped by Connie's Diner to fuel up for the long day ahead.
Connie's Diner, unlike its New Jersey brethren with their strong Greek prescence, is owned and run by an Italian family, and has been open for quite some time. We recalled that even Emile's was an Italian restaurant, and we had passed quite a lot of pizzerias here in upstate New York. We're quite curious as to how one ethnic group, and not another, had made inroads into the Finger Lakes back then, to seemingly dominate the local restaurant industry.
Connie's was bustling that Sunday. We were lucky to snag a booth by the window, well within sight of the furs who were waiting in the car. We liked the old-school, authentic feel of the diner, with its blue-and-orange vinyl upholstery and jukeboxes on the table.
The verdict: hearty good diner food!
DJKung got the steak and eggs.
I got eggs with potatoes, and sausage for the furs.
