Restaurants, not fast food....

- Melting Pot
- Cheesecake Factory (for the cake)
- Macaroni Grill
- Chilis
- Red Lobster (biscuits!)
- Claim Jumper
- Roy's Restaurant (Hawaiian Fusion)
- IHOP

Ok I'm just feeling really really hungry at the moment.

Edit: Add Red Robin in there.

Old Country Buffet..quantity > quality.

Claim Jumper is really really good.


Also, Bojangles and Q-Shack (which only exists in the Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill area). Q-Shack has the best BBQ I've ever had.

LoL... Golden Corral ftw. I feel like throwing up each time I eat that. Or those Chinese buffets where I get like 6 plates and take 3 hours.... There are days where I feel like quantity is key... to death.

I don't eat at too many chain restaurants,but I've had a soft spot for the Capital Grill and Legal Seafoods.


Other than that, they suck. I'm sure some of the other premo steak places are pretty good, too, but I've only eaten at the Capital.

I think the only memorable chain restaurants I've ever eaten at were steakhouses, Capital Grille, Morton's, Ruth's Chris. I guess those will have to be my favorite, although I can think of half a dozen steakhouses I'd rather go to if the choice were mine. OH yeah, I do enjoy going to Cracker Barrel when travelling, but mainly out of road trip nostalgia, the food really is pretty terrible. Come to think of it, Houston's isn't half bad either, but I haven't been to one since I was in college and I had a friend who was a server and used to slide us all kinds of free shit. I used to like Ruby Tuesday's when I was a kid, but that's probably because they had crap on the walls and gave me Roy Rogers with my meals.

The thing is I don't like the chain restaurants so I figure that I should get my money's worth. hehe
