Modern Diner has a great selection of classic dishes and constantly changing breakfast specials. But it’s one particular breakfast plate that gave this spot its claim to fame.

According to the Food Network, this place has the number one diner dish in the nation. It’s Texas-style French toast topped with custard, fresh strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, house-candied pecans, and raspberry syrup. Yum!

The Custard French Toast is a dish created by accident. The restaurant had prepared too much vanilla pudding one day and instead of throwing the sweet stuff away, it was thinned down into a custard and poured over French toast. This accidental creation is now the most popular dish at the diner.

Of course, the French toast isn’t the only crave-worthy dish served here. Dive into the lobster benedict for something truly decadent.
