re: #144 Nerdy Fish

Interesting. Applebee’s was another treat place we went to frequently, or other restaurants in its class (TGI Friday’s, Chili’s). Their food wasn’t exactly great, but most of the time it was acceptable better-than-fast-food fare for a kid/teenager growing up in Bumfuck, Indiana.

Yeah, I’ve never had a problem with Applebees. The burgers are fine, the jack daniels chicken and shrimp dishes are decent if you like a little bit of a sweet sauce. Of the 3 you mention Aplebees would probably come in 3rd, but not a distant third.
