9 Delicious Dutchess County Diners
Last week I celebrated my birthday, and my brother and his fiance wanted to take me to dinner. When they asked me where I wanted to go, I told them I’d really like to go to a diner. Any diner around here will do. Dutchess County has a nice selection of diners, and they’re all really good.
Here's the thing about diners. You can get just about anything you want, and most of it is damn good. I knew that I could have a nice cup of matzah ball soup and a delicious chicken souvlaki. And that’s exactly what I ordered. And a giant piece of coconut custard pie for dessert. And I washed it all down with a tall glass of iced coffee. It was great.
Yup, there’s nothing like a diner meal. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate a gourmet meal at a fancy restaurant as much as anybody, but sometimes you just want to be relaxed, maybe a little loud, and eat like a pig. Besides, at a diner you can get breakfast for dinner and I’ve been known to do that more than a few times.
If you are also a lover of diners, you should check out Dutchess County. I’ve put together a list of nine great Dutchess County diners, and I can honestly tell you that I’ve been to and enjoyed meals at every one of them.
