I found out today that the Empire Diner located in Chelsea NYC will be closing thier doors this May. It has been there for over 30 years and has been enjoyed by many locals, celebrities and has been featured even in movies like "Men in Black".
I lived in Chelsea from about 1985 to 1988 and frequented that diner. Even after leaving the city it was a place I would always go back to here and there. Just recently met my buddy Peter there for brunch and glad we did since I doubt I will be able to get back there for another time before it closes next month.
I was so excited that I may be getting an apartment in NYC again after all these years and I planned on enjoying weekend brunch with my doggie "Shannon" in tow at the Empire Diner.
It really saddens me. The Empire Diner is a staple of New York City and will be much missed.
