Diners: Still Cookin' in the 21st Century
This exhibit celebrates a quintessentially American institution, the diner. From the diner’s origins in Providence, Rhode Island, as a horse-drawn lunch wagon, to the sprawling “retro” establishments of today, the “Blue Plate Special” remains the best deal in town. When Americans go out to eat, they still want home-cooked food, and that’s what’s on the menu in a diner.
