What Makes a Good Diner? We Asked the Pros

Staff and patrons at Empire Diner on Route 46 discuss the qualities of a Class A diner, and what it's like to work and eat at the Empire.

As Jerseyans, we know our diners--and Parsippany residents are no exception. We know what separates a good diner from a mediocre one. Patch visited the on Route 46 and asked the experts, namely, waitresses and customers, to pontificate on great diners in general, and the Empire in particular.

We learned the secret of balancing plates, the ingredients of "tropical waffles'' and what township residents Jack Reich and Carmen Iuele like for breakfast. The answers run all week in our new video feature, "You Said It.'' Look for another installment tomorrow.
