Retired Old Men Eating Out pour the coffee themselves.
Every Monday for the past ten years, Brad Sinoff, 74, has arrived at the Main Line deli before the sun comes up. The waiters are not yet there; the dining room is empty. He heads to the kitchen, where he tells the cook he’ll have his regular: eggs overwell , homefries, sausage, skip the toast. It costs $8.75.
Sometimes another customer will wander in before the place really opens; Sinoff will serve that person coffee, too. The staff is busy preparing dozens of catering trays before the morning rush.“They’re part of the store,” Rodney Richardson, the executive chef who has worked at Hymie’s for 22 years, said. “It’s like part of setting up.”among older Americans, this weekly breakfast is also something of a prophylactic.
At breakfast, they tease each other, catch up on mutual friends, and discuss what they’re each doing for the rest of the day. “ ‘number 62′ and everybody starts laughing. And then they say ‘number 24′ and everybody cracks up,” Barson began.“Can I tell the joke or are you going to tell the joke?” Barson asked. “The new guy’s in there, he says to the cellmate next to him, he says, ‘What’s this?’”After a bit of bickering, Barson laid out the basics: The prisoners had shared the same jokes for so long that they no longer told them in full, instead referring to each by number.
