I went for BREAKFAST at an AMERICAN DINER and was SHOCKED by what I SAW...

[@markthorpe1528]

Loving the mellow Jazz you're playing,really sets the scene well.

[@Superbokka]

Lol Lee my Team Newcastle were stuffing Leicester 4-0 in that match that was playing in the Diner so I was well happy. I 100% agree with you about Americans Patriotism and it's one of the things I most admire about them.

[@63mckenzie]

My brother's second wife was from New York (Queens). She had picking good and bad diners down to an art form. I think it's a natural survival instinct of every New Yorker.

[@richardbambenek2601]

Lee, I make extra baked potatoes so I can slice them up later for breakfast. I leave the skins on and fry them in butter with diced onions salt and pepper. Delicious.

[@joannharrington2279]

The breakfast looked delicious. Enjoy your walk on the beach. Stay aware and be safe. Maybe the Silver Fox will be in the next one.

[@dianeshepherd7913]

Its good to see the ocean in the states, the dinner looked good, love the look of the hash browns, thanks for showing us around, just really like how the front yards are kept so neat, the grass on the sidewalks are kept short and neat they take pride in there neighborhood, the places i have been to do, and where you walked today in this video, the beach lovely and clean to 😊

[@TopazDreamer-qu2tn]

Gosh that beach and sunshine looks nice even in the cold. Envy kicking in. McCloud, Columbo, Kojak and Rockford files. Great telly watching on floor with a Top Deck Shandy 🥰

[@infinitelimitlesslightx5437]

I like the sunshine too. New Zealand was wet and windy and grey skies ❤

Well you remember The six Million Dollar man, He could run at 60mph. Without a speeding ticket lol.

[@Elsie-uy2kl]

I am old enough to remember McCloud, Cannon and Quincy when they were shown originally. 😯. You're right Lee - the TV shows were much better then. Some are timeless. 👍

[@mamnan8953]

@Elsie-uy2kl I liked the Waltons and just remember patents place or similar name

[@susanwaite1187]

​@@mamnan8953 Peyton Place?

[@rovertaw22]

$6M man, The Hulk ,Bionic Woman , Knight Rider , The Duke of Hazzard etc. All somewhat corny but the whole family could watch them as the violence was cartoonist compared to today's shows

[@mamnan8953]

@susanwaite1187 Susan exactly Peyton place

[@BarbaraPape-y4g]

A full English breakfast in the USA is nigh on impossible to find. The best i ever had was in Van-Nuys LA at the AirTel -Plaza, now they did have have baked beans and full size sausages. Get back into the warmth Lee, see you in the next one.

[@mikecain565]

Looked like Blackpool with all the boarded up buildings at the start lol,

[@gustywind-de7xb]

I used to eat a full breakfast back in Europe but ever since I got here since 1990, I only eat lunch and dinner like most Americans.

[@NeilBarratt]

Have a breakfast at Wetherspoons and you get change from a fiver. Unlimited tea and coffee too.

[@stephensimpkins]

And food poisoning…..🤮

[@skylershank9309]

Soccer playing in an American diner? An outrage!!!

Chips. Tj Hooker, The Fall Guy, Dukes of Hazzard amongst others were great back in the day when tv was worth watching. Great vlog Lee ❤️ Thanks x

Hey hun you looked so chilled out there on the beach even though it was freezing . as you say if you are wrapped up warm who cares xxx❤

Ditto about the flags you don't see many in Australia and some people want to change the existing one because they are woke and ashamed of the country. Down with the colony and invasion day and all that crap. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

I used to love the freebies we kids got on Pan Am. The gold wing badges, little storybook, colouring/dot-to-dot book and hard candy grandpa used to pinch. It really was a State airline like BA was.

I’ve been to American diners in the uk…the free top up coffee ive found to be dishwater…

Looks cold mate!

We have jellies AND jams. Jelly is made from fruit juice only. Jam has the pulp (and fruit pieces) as well. We make the choice.

In New Orleans we have Dot's Diner, with a '50s vibe. Excellent food and service.🍽🇺🇸🎭🎺😎

Hi Lee 😎 Nice walk on the beach.Got to love the beach,even in the winter.That sausage looked pretty fat.Most restaurants around here, only serve, sausage patties.

[@DavidDunning-m3v]

Merry Christmas lee and family 😂

[@RobwithScoobyScooby]

nice looking diner , we would have them little french vanilla cartons with coffee , one thing i find weird on american breakfasts is Grits , one place i want to visit is matawan creek famed for the inspiration behind JAWS with its Jersey Shore shark attacks of 1916 .

[@mongo64071]

The corn syrup thing is because the government subsidizes corn farmers for food and for the ethanol program for blending in gasoline. It’s a way to use the excess grain.

[@infinitelimitlesslightx5437]

Have a great day Lee ❤see you tomorrow ❤🎉 happy birthday too for the 25th 🎄❣️

[@TheRiddler_1]

What do you use for filming? Camera? Phone? Your vlogs are great. Keep up the great work Mac.

[@mildredschulz]

Your breakfast looked good Lee. I wouldn't leave my camera on the beach and go away from it. I would be scared of someone steeling it, Hope you have a great weekend. Take care and stay safe. Mildred xxx

[@judyhayward6291]

We went for a meal with some friends in Columbus, Ohio a few years ago. Delicious lamb. I asked for some mint sauce - they'd never heard of it!

[@matthewetheridge4535]

The breakfast came to 23.59 at the end of the day that's seems alot for what you got!

[@vevey75]

Lee when are you joining Geoff in Pattaya, Thailand. Looks like he is having a ball out there and the weather is fine.

[@meisterlymanu5214]

Basically its 60 bucks a day for 2 average meals. Thats 420 dollars a week. 1700 a month. Better have a great pension for that. Oh wait, pensions never caught up with inflation did they..

Double that for a couple. Need deep pockets in new York I think. Of course eating out every day is not viable not even in UK.

[@thekitowl]

Interesting to see what a breakfast is like in an American dinner.

Lea, baked beans are also not on a Canadian breakfast.😮😊.

Love the green stripe diner china, So nostalgic!

[@Whirlynerds]

The end made me laugh 😆

[@EvilSie]

Nothing like the quintessential American Diner Lee. Shame you didn't get one of the booths. I'd have gone for the steak and eggs. Would avoid the high fructose corn syrup like the plague and go for the chohula and tabasco sauce I spotted on there. American beans are way different to ours, full of sugar and molasses, so they would find putting beans on a breakfast weird. And they didn't put Leicester on TV for Leicester, it was for Newcastle😂

[@magicmcquades6101]

Pancakes,bacon,and maple syrup.mmmm heaven.wow I cannae get over how quite it is.❤love your work MR D ❤

[@clpar-k2x]

Plenty of flag wavers at Royal Events or the Proms, its tradition innit. Lovely looking beach.

Didn't he say minus 2? That's 30F.

[@imagseer]

@@NeilBarratt -2F in America would be -19C. It didn't look that cold and no pipes were frozen solid! But you need to go somewhere warm soon and get a tan back.

The one thing I miss in Blackpool from the 80s was the pancake house's there was 3 or 4 of them. But now there are none around anymore. Pancakes with syrup or lemon or strawberries and my favourite orange squash.

I agree with you re the flags, although as a 70 year old I cannot remember England ever being flag wavers. And now under the Stasy Starmer regime you may get locked up for upsetting "someone" if you even hint at being patriotic .......

[@MDK3192]

In Texas, there's more flags flying than you've ever seen.... it's almost overkill. America is patriotic for sure 🇺🇲

No one gets locked up for upsetting people (unless you are assaulting them physically or sexually) ... this has been in law for many years. What you are moaning about is due to you lacking self control or degradation of social skills, aka grumpy old man syndrome.

[@andrewburton9643]

Food looked amazing, I'd prefer those home fries to hash browns I think? You're right with the TV, I grew up as a teenager in the 80s and Saturday night tv was outstanding, dukes of hazard, a-team, knight Rider, Miami Vice, buck Rogers, the full guy. Absolutely spoilt at the time and didn't realise it. Apart from like game of thrones and breaking Bad, agree modern tv isn't great. With regards to the flags, I love seeing the Union Jack as I'm extremely patriotic and luckily see loads in the North East, especially when England have a football tourney. Keep up the great work 👍👍👍

[@roger5159]

Cracking breakfast, Lee. Am sure, in the old cowboy films, they used to eat sausage and "beans." They're also repeating Fantasy Island on UK TV Freeview at the moment (Rewind TV, I think). Re "Running," someone I knew a few years ago said he was doing the UK "Peaks challenge." Asked him if it involved running, to which he replied. "Have you ever seen a "happy" runner?" Thought about this for a while, and now I always look at people who are running/jogging to see if they are smiling lol! This, of course, I say as a hypocritical lazy keyboard warrior who really needs to get out more and do some exercise!!! 😊
