Cheesecake Factory - hands down !
I.FEEL.NO.SHAME.NONE!

[Anonymous]

Outback every couple of months when I'm craving a steak that isn't expensive. Red Lobster occasionally when I see the Lobsterfest commercials and my mouth starts watering for cheesey biscuits. KFC or Popeyes once a month for my fried chicken fix. Occasionally Baja Fresh for fish tacos - I like theirs better than District Taco's fish option. And if we were traveling and Olive Garden was one of the limited options, I'd be all over it, though I don't seek it out here at home.

Oh-- now this is shameful. I looooooooove me some Olive Garden salad and breadsticks. It. Is. The. Best. But I never go there except when I visit my parents in the midwest. They love Olive Garden. So for Christmas and other gift giving holidays I give them Olive Garden gift certificates. Inevitably when I'm visiting they will say, "Hey, want to go to Olive Garden? We have gift certificates." Yessssssss!

Ok, I'm awful. I admit it.

I would say Ollie's Trolley but you couldn't pay me enough to eat that greasy crap anymore. Same for Waffle Shop on Mt Vernon Ave. Greasy greasy soak-the-whole-damn-takeout bag greasy. Gross.

I was JUST going to ask this. Its all microwaved shitty ass food. I love McDonalds so I am not a food snob but seriously.....Chillis?

Bwahahaha!

The queso. That's it. Just the queso. (Or if your plane is delayed in terminal C of any airport anywhere)

Cheesecake factory is all microwaved shit too. (Any place with pages and pages in the menu, TGIFs, etc.)
I guess microwaved shit tastes pretty good sometimes! Costco starts carrying all this stuff and they will lose the middleman.

Culvers. Cheesecurds and a turtle sundae.
TGI Fridays. They used to have this grilled chicken sandwich with some sauce and their brownie sundae, which is probably better than the one that PP at Chili's liked (no nuts!)
Arby's. Beef and Cheddar!

It probably tastes good all the time. It is the miracle of chemistry what they can do to make food products addictive!

AMTRAK HOTDOGS!! With two relishes and two mustards, and a Sam Adams, preferably eaten sitting at a cafe car table.

Costco hotdogs are pretty good too.

Not feeling the Chipotle love here though - I love burritos, but theirs have this weird spice and texture I don't like.

Chicken strips at an Applebee's or TGI Fridays type place - heaven.

OMG. Those fries! I was the first PP to mention Taco Bell because there is one closer to me. I never get to Ollie's Trolley anymore because I'm not close to one.

OP here. I like their veggie cheeseburger and their fries are awesome. Their margarita was awesome and came with a big shaker and a small glass so it felt like several margaritas for the price of one. And pretty yummy desserts.

The Cajun chicken sandwich is the only thing I like there. And do ever I like it.

Also: Chipotle (anything there is great), Taco Bell (*hides* - I can't help it, the Crunchy Cheesy Gordita is so delightful), 5 Guys, the quesadillas + margaritas at Rio Grande Cafe/Uncle Julio's.
