Fantasy of Flight - The Compass Rose Diner

The Compass Rose Diner

Adjacent to the attraction's lobby is an Art Deco themed restaurant called "The Compass Rose Diner" which features the characteristics of diners associated with airports during the 1930s and early 1940's. The restaurant features tall windows, multi-hued terrazzo floors and the curved architectural lines associated with the Art Deco period. The diner is open to the public and serves a short-order menu similar to that of lunch counters popularized during the pre-WWII era.

Famous quotes containing the words compass and/or rose:

    be a while our guests:
    For stars, gaze on our eyes.
    The compass love shall hourly sing,
    And as he goes about the ring,
    We will not miss
    To tell each point he nameth with a kiss.
    William Browne (1591–1643)

    And in the next instant, immediately behind them, Victor saw his former wife.
    At once he lowered his gaze, automatically tapping his cigarette to dislodge the ash that had not yet had time to form. From somewhere low down his heart rose like a fist to deliver an uppercut, drew back, struck again, then went into a fast disorderly throb, contradicting the music and drowning it.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
