but when was the last time you or anyone you know stepped inside a Red Lobster?

The late 1970s.  I was 5.  I was not impressed.  But my wife recalls being dragged there on a couple of co-worker birthday requests and has fond memories of the cheddar biscuits, as I assume do most.  But my sensory memory doesn't recall what I had at the so-called Dirty Lob or whether I liked it much.  So I haven't a hankering or a sadness in response to this news.  I also know that I have said for years that our local RL could have another RL across the street from it, and they'd both be packed. 

 

As for Steak & Ale, yes to all of the above.  In Houston, we also had Steak and Egg, which was more late night steak at the diner-bar type of place.  As a kid, I remember going to one-offs like Circus Restaurant on Westheimer, Mama's, Papa's, The Strawberry Patch, and Houston's.  For Tex-Mex, it was Molina's.  As for anything fancier, they didn't waste it on the kids until we were old enough to appreciate it.

 

Edit to add, Cliff's for burgers (still) or JCI for a large-group burger scenario or Hamburgers by Gourmet for the best burger of all time.

Man....the Strawberry Patch.  One of the most glorious CFS's in history.  Miss that place.

That place punched way above its weight.  And I'm now reading it was a Pappa's owned restaurant.  Honestly, no surprise.

Arby’s. Down to 1 location “inside” the loop in Houston, and for good reason. Even the classic roast beef, and beef & cheese sucks at the location near NRG. 
 

Patiently waiting for the government to come down on them for deceptive advertising.

I'm cool with local zoning ordinances that do not allow Arby's to build new locations. 

They can keep slinging their freezer burned meat from where they're already at -as it's on you at this point if you haven't figured them out-, but they don't get to take any additional real estate off the market.

Last time I ate subway was several years ago. I remember that I wasn't disgusted, but it felt like I wasn't eating real food. Like maybe I was served some fake food that they use on display at furniture stores.

Free double meat for a double dose of that sodium.

The only Subway I like is a local one that let me, a non-customer, take a shit in their bathroom one night when I had explosive diarrhea. Bought a cookie on the way out, it was the classy thing to do.

"Meatier Shower 2" won the audience polling as best gay porn feature of 2022.

I saw it in a newsletter.

That someone else signed me up for.  I swear.

It’s a solid option if you’re driving and it’s nothing but truck stops for the next couple hundred miles. 
 

Not bad for an airport either.

I used to do this all the time, buy the sub then eat it maybe an hour later when I wasn't busy. But there is so much sodium in them now, I feel like I need to down a galloon of water afterwards. Which, needless to say, defeats the purpose of eating them on the go when I now need to piss aver 34 minutes

I've seen more Fuzzy Taco's closures in the last 12 months, I think it's doomed.

I haven't eaten Subway in 10+ years and would probably just not eat before eating that weird meat and suspect food.

But I do love Jimmy John's. I'm a complicated man.

Jimmy John’s is where I go when I want a bread sandwich. Way too much bread and not enough meat.

Jersey Mikes is way better.
