Clayton's


One of my favorite diners  is Clayton's Coffee Shop in Coronado California.  "Grilled cheese on sourdough please with fries on the side."  Comfort food is just that, comforting.  When I grew up, my small town had a couple of great diners.  No more.  Too bad they were gutted and destroyed so long ago.  I find it pleasurable to sit in an old Naugahyde booth and sip a cherry coke.  Clayton's has many regular customers, and of course the waitresses know their names and what they want to eat.   I absorb the past through places like Clayton's.  It is one of Main Street USA's finest destinations.
