Did they learn nothing from "Pretty Woman"?

So funny that red lobster is boomers’ idea of seafood. Y’all were raised with a wartime mentality. DC has tons of great seafood boil or restaurants that serve fresh fish from the Chesapeake (or sushi with fish shipped straight from Japan!)

No. Long John Silver is not the same thing as Red Lobster. Long John Silver was the fast food seafood place. All their buildings resembled a ship. As a kid, I loved going to LJS and walking up the plank to get to the building.

Plus the "crunchies". Kid meals came in a paper ship. Awesome place.

Red Lobster was the fancy seafood place.
