RI - PROVIDENCE. Liberty Elm Diner

Back in July of 2009 we wrote about our visit to the Elm. We've visited this 1947 Worcester Lunch Car Company built diner a number of times in the past. However on that day's visit, Food Network's "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives" producers had sent a video crew to the diner.

We wondered what brought "DDD" as it is sometimes referred to Providence? Was it this diner's seasonal incorporation of locally grown ingredients into daily specials? The diverse music performed during "Americana Breakfast Club" on Sundays? Or the free WiFi? Tune in February 22, 2010, when the episode airs on "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives." Though the program starts at 10PM Eastern, check your local listings for your region and times when it will be on again.

Visit the diner's facebook page for more information about a viewing party that is in the works. Better yet, stop by today and let them know the people at DinerHistory.com sent you.

This past weekend, the Learning Channel (TLC) sent a film crew to shoot scenes at the Miss Worcester Diner. "Miss Woo" as it's affectionately known, was built right across the street in 1948 at Worcester Lunch Car Company (which has been closed for many years). It is no stranger to the spotlight and will be the subject of an episode in the TLC series "American Eats"

Worcester Telegram & Gazette staffer Priyanka Dayal wrote about the event. The entire article is available here. Stay tuned as we'll post information in the sidebar regarding air dates.
