Secret Diner (spoiler: it’s us)

The Secret Diner mistook bayside calm for innocence. Fire pits negotiated. Someone proposed one more round; the sunset seconded. We left believing porches should always face water.

Satirical column—original voice, not a single lifted review. Pair with the summaries above for mood, not contract catering guarantees.
