8 Nostalgic Spots Within An Hour's Drive Of NYC - New York - The Infatuation
"Established in 1946, originally as a second location to the White Mana above, White Manna in Hackensack is a chrome-and-neon living fossil of a diner that makes an iconic slider. The prices aren't quite what they were during the Truman administration, but close enough: A plain hamburger still goes for less than $2. The patties here are fatter and juicier than their Jersey City cousins, and they have an abundance of soft, thinly sliced onions. Watching the cook prepare dozens of burgers on the griddle at once in a meticulous assembly line is as meditative as raking sand in a zen garden." - bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, will hartman
