Empire Diner, New York City
Author: NickLast night flicking through the TV I happened across Men In Black 2, to my delight I saw one of my favorite places to eat in the whole world was on the screen, the Empire Diner in New York. The Empire Diner is located in Chelsea on the corner of 23rd and 10th and is one of the last remaining “train car” steel diners left on Manhattan. Not only is it full of character but the food they dish up is absolutely top notch. I managed to get there four times during my trips to New York last year and wish I could have breakfast in there at last once at week but the commute from London is a bit much! Here are some shots I took while I was there:

Stumbled across your terrific photos of a great place to eat. Great work. And advice to others – if you stumble in, it’s quiet and you’re not sure whether you can sit at the counter – of course you can. And you should!
