The diner fetishist operates from a position of appreciation for things that are exactly what they are, no more and no less. It means finding value in food that tastes like its components, especially in an age in which so many sub-standard restaurants put on airs or pretend to be better than they are. But you can take this too far. You defeat the purpose of humble food when you exalt it. Yes, White Mana has been around since the 1939 World's Fair, where it was introduced as the "diner of the future" (it's round, made of steel, and has a 13-foot circular steel counter inside). Yes, the beefy burgers come with sauteed onions and are still less than a dollar, and the fries have the inimitable snap that only overheated lard can convey. But if you eat too much at White Mana, you'll end up sloshing around woozy with a cholesterol headache and wrenching gastrointestinal palpitations. Take heed: Moderate your intake of these tempting, slippery little discs. It's best to pop in on a restless night when you need some grease and dough to soak up the alcohol in your belly.

    If you want a greasy burger go to the White Mana in Hackensack. If you want a real Burger try Jersey City White Mana it Blows away the competition. I have friends from Upstate that visit me and want a White Mana Burger from Jersey City when they come here.

    I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO THE WHITE MANNA IN JERSEY CITY, SO THAT IS PROBABLY WHAT SOME PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT!
    THE WHITE MANNA IN HACKENSACK IS A PLACE WHERE ALOT OF BUSINESS PEOPLE GO TO ON THEIR LUNCH BEING THERE IS ALOT OF OFFICES THERE.
    NO HOOKERS IN HACKENSACK. KEPT CLEAN. THE PERSON MAKING THE BURGERS THERE ISN'T TOUCHING THE MONEY. THERE IS SOMEONE ELSE THERE WHO DOES.
    THESE BURGERS ARE VERY TASTY AND EXCELLENT.
    A MATTER OF FACT , MC DONALDS IS DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET, AND THE LI NE UP FOR BURGERS IS AT WHITE MANNA, NOT MCDONALDS.. SO THAT SHOULD SAY SOMETHING FOR ITSELF!
