"In 1988, the late great Pete Contos took over a 1940s-era diner on East Colfax, where Pete’s Kitchen still stands an icon of the genre. Snug vinyl booths, check; chrome stools along the counter, check; old photos lining the walls, check — and check above all for a menu that likely hasn’t changed one iota since the cooks began slinging gyros and souvlaki, patty melts and pork chops, beef chili and green chile all those years ago." - Ruth Tobias
