About

In some diners it's hard to get one waiter to take your order, but the Twin Star Diner makes absolutely sure that there are at least two people looking after your table.

Staffed entirely by identical twins, the diner was opened after the owner saw a film called Kingdom of Crooked Mirrors which centered on a young woman who confronts her alter ego on an alternate world. Now every employee at the diner—the waitresses, bartenders, and even the cooks—share their position with their identical twin. The twins are required to wear identical outfits while on shift and each duo works in unison in their specific position in the restaurant.
