City Diner is still around?? U would think this joint should have been gone long ass time ago before the others. BTW Hygiene problem is an understatement for this place....but they do have a great location :)

City Diner food is just plainly awful. Hygiene also a problem. Blue Frog is just a few meters away, why would anyone bother going to City Diner?

This is nothing new for the Olympics. Having lived in Atlanta during the 1996 games, I had to endure being patted down and searched every time I entered my apartment building because the Canadian and Japanese Consuls lived there also. Driving in my neighborhood was an obstacle course of search points where I had to stop and have them run mirrors under the car looking for bombs. All this every time I simply wanted to go to the grocery a half mile away.

No more Moon River, and now they shut down Steak&Eggs... forcing us across the street to City Diner certainly qualifies as "No Fun" in my book.
