In Syracuse there is this 50 year old diner that never closes, the waitresses are surly and chain smoked as long as they legally could, one of my favorite places to study and recover from nights and blurry mornings. Doc is now applying for chapter 13 bankruptcy and I suspect Doc's will close for good. End of an era, a beloved spot on the west side of town, just off 690.
It is so beloved that Martin Sexton (a Cuse native) mentioned it in song... "grab yourself a cheeseburger at the Little Gem Diner off the old 6-9er..."
