  • Join us today in Pigeon Forge Tennessee as we get to the bottom of what's behind all that stainless steel. Is it a tourist trap? Or is it one of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg's best diner experiences? Tune in today and find out!
    We sample a root beer float, avocado cheeseburger, French fries, onion rings, hot dog, chili, and cheese. We also view some great homemade cakes and experience some great retro tunes in this grand 1950's style diner!

    This place is gorgeous, so bright, colorful & clean looking, I love anything mid-century. The food & the float looked great. Who cares if it's a little expensive? It's a vacation. YOLO! I enjoyed seeing some of the retro toys too, brings back happy childhood memories.

    The prices there seem reasonable for the area. The only thing missin from that chili cheese dog was onion for me. Looked damn good! Good on you Matt for stepping outside the box and tryin something new and unusual. I couldn't do it. Good review guys, enjoy your holiday weekend.

      Try the one called The Corner Diner next time you're there, it's got good reviews and since you are diner fans I think you would like it :)

    The Sunliner Diner looks like a fun 1950's themed diner. Great looking burger, fries, float, hotdog, chili and especially those onion rings. I do like beans in my chili and I do like ketchup on my hotdog. Seeing that you put mustard and ketchup on the hotdog, I will give that a try. That mile high carrot cake looks so good. Those model cars looked cool. I remember Turkish Taffy from when I was a kid. Fun video from Sunliner Diner.

    Our first visit we were seated in the pink Cadillac ! We've visited twice since. I'm ok with beans or no beans in my chili. I'm the oddball who likes a bit of mayo and mustard on my hotdog OR a chili dog with cheese and onions. I like that the menu is on the nostalgic newspaper. I'm really enjoying your reviews. Great job to you both.

    Just answering some of your questions: no way do I put ketchup on my hotdog; yes, chili should have beans in it, else you can't really call it chili; and this wasn't a question, only my observation -- why on earth would you dip onion rings into ketchup? (No offense!) Thanks for a great video - it's nice to know that those kinds of restaurants, emulating the 50's, still exist. In Canada you'd be hard pressed to find one of them.

    • @RaysontheRoad
      @RaysontheRoad  Před 2 měsíci +3

      I agree ketchup doesn't belong on a hot dog but Matt disagrees. Beans really add to the experience! I just like to dip mine in ketchup, its fairly common where we are from so I didn't realize it was so strange. It seems that these types of places were more common but have gone away for whatever reason. We really like this place and it is quite the experience so we try to patronize it when we can for that very reason. Thanks for watching!
