I get worried when the place has multiple pages like that with a large variety of items, likely means they're not making a lot of stuff fresh and stuff sitting around to be used.

This past January, I took a trip to Hartford and as i was heading back home late at night, I saw this Diner on google showing 24 hours. To be honest, i drove past there and turned around immediately. The look of the diner screamed creepy and uneasy vibes for me. What i find most interesting is that you saw a sign saying, “Under New Management.” When i went there, now five months ago, that sign was still up. Maybe i don’t understand the reasoning, but after five months that sign is still up? The sign was also handwritten and taped up with no care. Just seemed very unprofessional to me.

It can be done right, that was a brick of egg served cold. If you dont know how to make scrambled eggs its gonna suck. It works with eggs that are properly separated. Most places dont mix it because it makes so many dishes and its too many egg pans to keep hot. Waffle house does it using like 20 uncured cast iron tiny pans in rotation, not the regular stainless pans. They throw the egg into the cast iron when its close to done and put in the cheese. Very messy process, caused a lot of dish issues when i worked there. So many spots will just make you some good scrambled eggs with cheese on top and it aint bad. Dishes are a big problem in the diner setting.
