Designer Henry Beer describes this former restaurant as “a truck stop made out of a truck.” The stainless steel facade was made by Freuhauf Fabricators, a Denver truck manufacturer. The interior's pink and gray color scheme and extensive use of vinyl and laminate, roller-skating wait staff, bright neon signage, and asphalt landscaping made this a nostalgic salute to diners past before it closed as a restaurant in 1996.
