Where else to go for
a Greek diner? Astoria, of course. So, what are the traits of a good
Greek diner? 1) Grouchy help 2) Menus with everything from scrambled
eggs to beef Wellington 3) Meals that couldn't possibly be cooked
in the miniscule time it takes those wacky diner chefs to cook them
4) Plates piled high with eggs, toast and potatoes. Add in some fancy
underwater decor and Queens-like mirrors and you have the Greek-god-themed
Neptune Diner. Now, grouchy help is one thing (you kind of expect
the abrupt ordering style, waitresses yelling at the top of their
lungs at the cooks, etc.) but rudeness is another. How dare you ask
to sit in the big room? You want to sit down when your entire party
isn't here--even though the diner is mostly empty? That's the Neptune
for you. Basically, if you are in Queens, and don't mind a little
bad attitude with your eggs, then stop by the Neptune and have some
breakfast. Hey, it's better than a trident in the ass. [MF] |
