Cheyenne makes move, still in grave danger
- Category: Eat in Diners
- Published on Saturday, 10 October 2009 14:35
The Cheyenne Diner completed its move from Manhattan to the Deep South, arriving in Alabama safe and sound. Unfortunately, the last paragraph in a new report published at ChelseaNow.com rings ever-so-ominously in our ears:
Once Miller and co-owner John Owens find a suitable site for the diner—which will become the centerpiece of a recreated 1950s-style town featuring a classic car museum and old theater space, among other attractions — the Cheyenne will start cookin’ again. “This is not just another place to eat,” Miller said of how she plans to promote the former West Side favorite. “This is the famous Cheyenne Diner.”
Until it is set up and serving food, it’s just an old diner in a field. The new owners have broken Roadside’s Cardinal Rule Number One For Buying a Diner: Before you buy and move anything, secure your location. We hope that Miller and Owens buck the trend, but we fear someone failed to do their homework.
