If you're ever in Houston, go to one of the two originals that are still independently owned. Fucking AWESOME.

I really don't get the Chilis posters. A lot of theses, I get, but there is nothing halfway decent in a Chilis.

The only thing I remember about bennigans is their Death by Chocolate ice cream cake. My friends and I made pilgrimages to bennigans while home from college just for that cake.

I would pay a premium for some broccoli bites right about now. I spent so much time at the Fair Oaks Bennigans as a teenager - would eat an order of broccoli bites, followed by a Monte Cristo with fries, washed down with bottomless fountain coke, of course. I'm very lucky to have escaped the teen years at a healthy weight.

Waffle House is my absolute favorite. We also take the kids to Applebees and Champps sometimes, for the easy kids menus and low-key experience.

BK - I like the Jr Whopper with onion rings
In N Out, although it's not really national
Taco Bell
Cheesecake Factory
Macaroni Grill
Costco hot dogs or Italian sausage (hot from the deli counter at the front of the store, not buying them packaged for cooking at home)

Olive Garden salad

But my absolute addiction is Long John Silvers. If there was one near me, I'd be fat. Thank goodness (not really) they are few and far between.

Both of those are big national chains, found in malls and town centers in flyover country towns everywhere


I knew Texas Roadhouse was national, but I thought that Longhorn was mostly in the East, with a few restaurants on the southwest. Looks like there are some in the Midwest now. I didn't know it had expanded. Thanks for the info.
