Dublin, New Hampshire (April 2008)--For its May/June Special 2008 Travel Issue, Yankee Magazine asked Richard Gutman, curator of the Culinary Arts Museum at Johnson & Wales University in Providence, Rhode Island, and author of three books on the history of diners, to name the top five diners in New England -- a difficult task, considering that there are more than 300 diners just in Massachusetts.

In each issue, Yankee names "The Best 5" in different categories. The next issue, July/August, will recognize the best five ice-cream stands for summer in New England.

"The Best 5" picks for New England diners are:

• Modern Diner -- Pawtucket, RI; 401-726-8390; quahog.org/cuisine

• Kelly's Diner -- Somerville, MA; 617-623-8102

• Capitol Diner -- Lynn, MA; 781-595-9314

• Libby's Blue Line Diner -- Colchester, VT; 802-655-0343

• A1 Diner -- Gardiner, ME; 207-582-4804; a1diner.com For more classic New England diners from Richard Gutman, go to: YankeeMagazine.com/10Things -30-
