I Went To Elon Musk's 24/7 Diner And It's Terrible

It's grimy, dirty, and slow. A confusing, infuriating, puzzling mess.

Hi,

I never intended this particular topic to be a Webworm newsletter, but after I went to Elon Musk’s new “Tesla Diner” last night, I could not not share this mess with you.

Hence why you are getting two newsletters today (the one about the multi-millionaire New Zealand family in damage control mode… and whatever the hell this is).

I guess it’s a slideshow, of sorts.

As I said, I never intended this to be a newsletter — so the photos you see are an insight in how I take photos when they are just for me. I take so many photos during the day, documenting shit for my own amusement, which explains why my camera roll currently has about 120,000 photos on it.

This is my experience at the Tesla diner, Elon Musk’s 24/7 restaurant.

A lone reporter files a story outside this place that is apparently still newsworthy:

The food options were basically a burger, a hot dog, a grilled cheese sandwich, loaded fries, and a chicken thing. I was so distracted by how “blergh” this whole thing was that I forgot to take a photo of the food when it finally arrived.

This man, possibly Richard Branson’s cousin, appeared to be the manager and his facial expression said what we all felt:

After ordering your food on a touch screen, you went to the first area to pick up your drink order. Whoever designed this system left both staff and customers in utter confusion.
