Sunday Edition - November 3, 2025
Good morning Member
How are you doing? I hope you’re all waking up to something warm and comforting this Sunday. I was driving the other day and passed by where one of my old favorite diners used to be. It got me feeling a little nostalgic, thinking about how some restaurants weren’t just about the food, but about the memories shared around the table.
So here’s today’s question: What closed restaurant do you miss the most? Maybe it was a neighborhood treasure, a date-night favorite, or just the spot where everyone knew your name. I’d love to hear your stories in the forum—those places deserve a little remembrance, don’t they?
Now, let’s roll into today’s stories, filled with good reads to warm your heart and maybe stir up a little more nostalgia along the way:
