Salt and Pepper Diner

I recently caught lunch with friends at Salt and Pepper Diner on Clark between Addison and Eddy in Lakeview near Wrigley. It's a typical greasy diner with a really nice staff. I like that there's nothing fancy about the place, but unfortunately, the food's pretty bad. I ordered a Denver Omelet, and it came with hashbrowns and toast. I may have been particularly taken aback by the fact that they clearly melted cheese slices over the eggs instead of having shredded cheese, and maybe that's a weird thing to let bug me. As I chatted on with my friends, the staff was more than happy to refill our waters and coffees, and there's something really positive to be said about that.
