« Portuguese-style paella in New Bedford | Main | Webby Awards: Fresh sites for your bookmarks » April 9, 2008Haven Bros. Diner on 'Today Show' with R.I. blogger's photos
The Today Show brought Haven Bros. Diner to NYC for a segment today that ran just over four minutes. Here's the clip, which will play after a commercial. Both independently picked Haven Bros. as their favorite old diner for a new feature, "A Taste From Our Past." The link comes from Greenville photographer Linda Hawkins' blog. Some of her photos of the diner were included in the segment. My images are at 1.48, but watch the whole clip because it’s actually really fun! Ivan and Sal actually hauled the diner all the way to NYC for the show! It’s the first time the Haven Bros. has actually been out of RI! VERY COOL guys! What a fun segment! Ivan and Sal, what I really want to know is did Matt and Meredith actually eat those dogs so early in the morning?
When I emailed Linda to ask how NBC knew about her work, she replied, The NBC Today Show contacted me after they had done some research on the net for the Haven Bros. segment. They had stumbled upon my blog with images of the place (as well as other peoples' blogs) and they loved the style of the images so they sent me an email. It was fun and I'm glad I got to do it!
