Why Seniors frequent The Michigan Diner

Open Tuesday-Sunday, the Michigan Diner always seems to be packed full of seniors for dinner. Why all of the seniors of Tecumseh gather at this place for dinner seems to be a mystery for most,  however I have done a little research to uncover the secret. The Michigan diner has a menu catered towards seniors and can be found by clicking here . With liver and onions, meat loaf, and 2pc broasted chicken dinners all under $8.00 it soon becomes clear why so many are flocking to eat at this Tecumseh diner. Nonetheless, I was still clueless as to what 'broasted' chicken actually is. In my head I make the assumption that there is a 'broasting' setting on the oven and that is how the chicken is cooked. Having said that, I have again taken 30 seconds of my time to google 'broasted chicken', according to ochef.com, 


"The Broasting process makes chicken that has the taste of fried chicken, but is moister and less greasy.... Pressure fried chicken has up to 44% more moisture than the leading brand of open fried chicken, and 4-% to 70% less fat and fewer calories."

I'm going to assume that most seniors want to eat less fat to reduce blood pressure or any other health jazz that Nurse in training Alex would advocate for. Thus giving seniors another excuse to eat at The Michigan Diner.
