I've stopped at a diner like this in #Australia in a on-map-only town.

It was dinner time.

Conversation ceased, like in an old western.
The locals looked up at me from their evening broth, false teeth on tea saucers like elaborate Michelin desserts.

I felt, there was sadness and regret in their eyes, looking at my bulk. I would have made better filling of the cauldron at the back than the scrawny German backpacker.

I turned on my heel and drove out over the potholes of the parking lot back onto the highway.
The Diner was still in my rear vision mirror, when it begun to disolve into a crossroad on my GPS.

This diner exists in many places across Canada. I'm sure there is at least one in every province and at least three in Ontario across the top of Lake Superior.
I've been inside five for sure.

The menu is the same each instance and it's always raining.

There is another whole bunch of this diner that are closed.

@cmconseils You were lucky to escape. If you'd seen a fallen tree blocking the road, you'd have had to go into the town and would have never been able to get back out again.
