COURIC MAKES STUNNING APPEARANCE AT DINER
Stunning CBS anchorwoman Katie Couric had jaws dropping when she visited the legendary Kumm Esse Diner in Myerstown — twice in one day.
Couric, flanked by her hairdresser and makeup artists, picked up a cup of coffee to go on Jan. 6 — a day before her 53rd birthday, sources said.
The news cutie and her posse were so impressed with how the food looked and smelled, they returned to the Route 422 eatery for lunch.
Dressed in jeans, boots and sweater, Couric’s warm smile dazzled employees and customers as she consumed her soup.
“TV does her no justice,” one observer said. “She is prettier in person.”
Couric was in the region to work on a two-part series “Antibiotics and Our Food,” which aired on the CBS Evening News on Jan. 20 and 21. She visited a turkey farm in Jackson Township, a source said.
“She (and her team) were very friendly and down to earth,” a source said.
