GRADUATE TEMPE – THE NORMAL DINER
Tempe, Arizona – Stop in The Normal Diner, an addition to the new boutique hotel chain, Graduate Hotels, for a friendly dining experience with a 60’s diner feel. Even though the Normal Diner is new, it has caused quite the buzz around town even from people not staying at the hotel.
Start your morning off right with one of The Normal Diner’s many breakfast options. The traditional buttermilk short stack covered in warm true maple syrup is always a yummy choice. Same goes for the chicken and waffles featuring red velvet waffles and crispy free range chicken. Try their hash, which is anything but the norm with braised beef short rib, roasted potatoes, and guajillo chile sauce topped with two local poached Hickman’s Farm eggs.
The Normal Diner also offers an afternoon menu with all the favorites. In the mood for something that will make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside? Try their Afterschool Special, which is a classic with a twist: BBQ Brisket Havarti and Cheddar Grilled Cheese with tomato soup. They offer two burgers, The Graduate Burger with two Angus patties or the Bison Burger with spicy hatch chili and smoked mozzarella. Both will hit the spot!
Finally, no 60’s diner would be complete without a thick shake that comes in many flavors (just ask Flo) and the scent of handmade seasonal pies wafting from the kitchen. So, if you’re in the mood for some old-fashioned food and hospitality, stop by this newly opened Squirrel Systems customer today!
