In the documentary Better Than Something, Jay Reatard comes to this diner after drinking at the Lamplighter Lounge.
Jay orders a toasted club sandwich, a double hashbrowns, and a piece of apple pie with a piece of American cheese melted on top. It looks pretty delicious...
Watch short version of the documentary, called Waiting for Something.

In the bio-documentary Better Than Something about Jay Reatard, one of the interviewees calls the Lamplighter Lounge, "Jay's home away from home."
This Memphis watering hole is featured in the film, although they only serve one kind of beer (PBR) and enforce a strict no-cursing policy.
View a short version of the documentary, called Waiting for Something.
Cheers.
