Just proves that Americans keep places that serve "plastic food" profitable. Throw O'Charlies in that bunch that serves food that all tastes the same. I haven't been in any of those three places in God knows when, and hope I never do again.
Places that depress me, and I do mean I am literally depressed to be in them.
Applebee's
TGIFriday's
O'Charley's
Baumhower's
Denny's (partly because of the always present divorced dad with his three kids in the corner booth who are running amok while he has a "When is your mother picking you up?" look on his face)
IHOP
Red Robin
Pizza Hut
Probably others that I am not thinking of right now.
Places that probably should depress me but don't...
CiCi's (fond memories from Auburn when $5 would get you enough pizza and pink lemonade that you didn't have to eat again for 36 hours. At that point I didn't really care that the pizza was of equivalent quality of what could be bought from the freezer section of Winn Dixie)
Waffle House (because I am usually at some level of inebriation while there)
Cracker Barrel (It's kitschy and corny, but damn the meatloaf and hashbrown casserole is good; also best cup of joe in the morning)
