Favorite Place Miss Adams comeback It's been a hot dog stand and a seafood restaurant, it's had its facade covered with stone, its ceiling covered with records, and it's had so many different managers in the last decade I've lost count. But, happily, Adams, Massachusetts now has its diner back, with Annmarie Belmonte taking her turn at managing this 1949 Worcester Lunch Car. Inside the Miss Adams today, it's hard not to notice the damage inflicted by several misguided remodelings over the past few years. The original Worcester Lunch Car woodwork has been covered with shiny metal, and pictures of Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe flank the original Worcester Diner clock. But the appealing small diner ambiance is still there, and patrons can sit at the original marble counter or a cozy Worcester Lunch Car booth. The Miss Adams features typical diner fare at very reasonable prices. The "Double,": two eggs, two bacon or sausage, and toast, goes for a mere $3.75. Dinner "blue plates" include meatloaf, turkey, shepherd's pie, fish and chips, clam strips, and steak and eggs - and none cost over $7.50. So, once again, Adams has its diner back. Let's hope it stays around for a long time. -GW |
