    Their gift cards should work at all the chains owned by that restaurant company (I forget the name). I think Outback is one of them, but t should list the others on the back.

    Outback is in a chain with Carrabbas, Bonefish Grill and Flamings. All three are better. Take the Outback card and go get yourself some Bang Bang shrimp on Wednesdays at Bonefish.

    Finding good local food is one of my few positives of traveling for work.

    I agree. I'm more talking in terms of a quick road stop when I'm rushing to get home after an event.

    Yelp is a godsend in that regard.

    I end up at my share of chains and fast food too on work trips. Sometimes logistics leave you little time

    Our BWW is still fairly new here, so there's still ample time for them to screw that up.
    The Chicken Fried Steak and eggs at IHOP are my go to. Pretty hard to screw that up.
    I've always been meh on Dennys and Outback.
    Applebees used to have pretty good burgers. The breakfast burger with the egg is pretty damn good.
    Cracker Barrell is good, but it just seems like it's so crowded. Not necessarily people crowded, but they cram 401 tables into a room that's fit for 20. And the gift shop, there's just so much shit.

    ... ever since they fired Brad's wife, on his birthday, I just can't eat there anymore.

    We had our Christmas party at Applebee’s. I ordered nachos to eat because you don’t microwave those.

    You really need to start a blog about chain restaurants and fast food.

    Went to Chili's the other night and the food was good. My only issue is that they brought the food just a minute or two after the appetizers, so those basically went to waste, as we had chips and salsa and cheese fries, neither of which are good as leftovers.
