100% loved that clip . I'll have to seek out the movie .
Pine Street diner . St. Louis Missouri . 3 blocks west of the Mississippi .
Opened at 4 am . Big time construction eats when working in the city .
Whatever you ordered the first time in the door , is what you got every time after that . They did fried potatoes instead of hash browns . We had to beg to get onions in the potatoes .
Two old gals working there , and when we walked in the doors , the one working tables would yell out " Onions in the spuds !" I guess so the one on the flat top knew to chop onions .
How the hell she remembered what you had is beyond me . It'd be 6 months and she'd say , 2 sausage , 2 eggs , onion in the spuds and sausage gravy on top . No toast , black coffee .
The answer to that was " yes ma'am .
The gal working the griddle smoked cigarettes . Damn ash an inch long hanging on the end . She had a 50 / 50 success rate of flicking the ash on the floor . The rest ended up on the flattop ,,,, mixed in .
