Ben Katchor’s keen cartoonist eye for curious connections and attention to detail are highlighted in his latest graphic history. In The Dairy Restaurant, Katchor packs a dense cultural and culinary account into an entertaining read by deftly employing his sly sense of humor, wit, and charcoal palette-drawings. The Dairy Restaurant serves up a loving chronicle of a vanishing cultural fixture and thought-provoking musings that’ll have you longing for a second helping.
