Notes:

The corner eatery as an institution of 20th Century America is fading in this bold new century, but stalwarts such as Ray’s are still around for those who make the effort to find them or are lucky enough to live near them. Reliable, friendly, practical, and unpretentious, this is the kind of place that anchored walkable neighbourhoods of the golden age of diner culture, and still serve that purpose today where they remain.
