In this informative and entertaining video documentary, author and newspaper reporter Peter Genovese, takes you on the ultimate road trip around New Jersey which is graced by more than 600 diners, by far more than any other state. Ten of the older, classic diners from the 40's and 50' are profiled. You know the type, those wonderful roadside restaurants with glistening stainless steel, neon signs, and swiveling counter stools. You'll meet the people who make these places go, the owners, customers, waitresses, and short-order cooks. See what goes on behind the scenes in the kitchen, learn why there are so many diners in New Jersey, and unravel the mystery of why most of these places are owned and operated by Greeks. Witness a blind diner waiter serving food and learn about his other life as a stand up comedian. Take a trip to "Diner World," the nation's only diner theme park. Drop a quarter in the jukebox, order some food, and drink plenty of coffee. Join Peter Genovese for the a great adventure around New Jersey, which would be more aptly named "The Diner State" than "The Garden State."
