âWe donât go to restaurants for the food. We go for the people who make the food and for the people who serve the food. We eat out to help us feel good feelings about the people we eat with. Restaurants create memories. Every page in Diner captures those feelings.ââCarla Lalli Music, author of That Sounds So Good and Where Cooking Begins
On New Yearâs Eve 1998, Andrew Tarlow, along with Mark Firth, opened Diner out of a repurposed dining car under the Williamsburg Bridge in Brooklyn. Within the decade, it single-handedly became one of the cityâs most influential restaurants, giving birth to a Brooklyn mini-empireâincluding Marlow & Sons, Romanâs, and Achilles Heelâand an ethos of community, sustainability, and eating local. In Diner: Day for Night, Tarlow takes us back to the restaurant that brought the farm-to-table movement to Brooklyn.
