Prompt
Using the provided reference image, replace the train interior scene with a straight-on, documentary-style photograph of a classic American diner counter wall. Remove the person, window reflection, thermos, and book entirely. Keep the image photorealistic and naturally lit, with warm tungsten bulbs across the top and wood-paneled walls. Add a large black letter-board menu with white block letters as the main subject, framed in metal above an open kitchen pass. Include 6 menu sections with these exact headings and items: BREAKFAST with 5 items (TWO EGGS TOAST 4.95, BACON & EGGS 6.50, HAM & EGGS 6.75, OMELET 7.25, BISCUITS & GRAVY 5.50); GRIDDLE with 4 items (SHORT STACK 4.25, PANCAKES 5.25, FRENCH TOAST 5.75, WAFFLE 5.95); SANDWICHES with 5 items (BLT 5.50, TUNA MELT 6.25, GRILLED CHEESE 4.50, CLUB SANDWICH 7.50, HAMBURGER 6.00); SIDES with 5 items (HASH BROWNS 2.50, BACON 2.95, SAUSAGE 2.95, TOAST 1.50, PIE 3.25); DRINKS with 5 items (COFFEE 1.25, TEA 1.25, MILK 1.50, ORANGE JUICE 1.75, SODA 1.50); and a DAILY SPECIAL line reading CHICKEN FRIED STEAK 8.25. Below the menu, show a stainless service opening and countertop with diner details including 2 condiment bottles, 1 napkin dispenser, and 1 shaker in the foreground. Wide horizontal composition, centered, realistic textures, slightly nostalgic roadside-diner mood.
