The Last Diner Stewart Hotston

We've all been there; the restaurant or eating establishment that you remember forever because it gave you nightmares or food poisoning. In The Last Diner, Theresa Derwin has collected together nineteen short stories set in or around eateries, where unnamed horrors lurk. From the insatiable appetite in 'All You Can Eat', to a totalitarian city ruler who wants the services of a famous baker; from a diner cook who likes to give his customers the 'special treatment' and a case where curiosity, and the need for a late night burger, killed the cat, these stories will make you laugh, cringe, possibly vomit up your last meal and shudder. From freegan restaurants, to burger joints, diners, five star establishments and the basement of a usurper's palace, you won't forget your meal at 'The Last Diner' in a hurry.
