'When we go to the diner, I let my daughter order whatever she wants.'
There’s a nook in Cleveland that claims a piece of my heart: Big Al’s, the most diner-y diner there ever was. It’s situated on the corner of two busy streets, with a wall of sunrise-facing windows that captures the morning light and warms the building from the inside out, especially during the brittle months of winter. The seating is as limited as the decor, with red booths atop checkerboard tiles and a row of swooping fans overhead that keep the air moving.
Diners are transportive. Not only are they coated in old-fashioned nostalgia, but they exist in a liminal space where anything goes. Since many are open early — or even all day long — you might see students hunched across their notebooks, or octogenarians debating current events, or shy first dates where $10 gets you a feast of eggy bounty and. Diners are as much ambiance and imagination as they are places to dine.
But now, we’ve moved back to the Midwest, and my daughter has established herself as an early bird — or, rather, an unpredictable bird. Some days, she sleeps in like a teenager. Other days, she shames the sun with her sprightly wake-ups. I used to bemoan those mornings, sending her back to her room with an audiobook, but lately, I’ve realized that there is nothing better for a sleepy, way-too-early morning than a diner. Luckily for us, there are several within minutes of our home.
