Must...Eat..at...Chain...Restaurant...

I can't help it. I am like a zombie looking for brains.

For some reason whenever I try to think of a restaurant, the following always pop, in order, into my head: Olive Garden, Bennigan's, Pizzeria Uno's, TGI Friday's, Ruby Tuesday's, Chili's and Applebee's. I have recently gotten good at resisting my crackhead-like urges and have been going to different places, but, like crack, I can't really figure out why people like myself are so addicted to them.

I decided that the only one of these places it is acceptable to go to is Uno's, since they offer something no one else does; their delicious flaky crust deep dish pies. The others however, I can't figure them out. The Olive Garden is just an Italian restaurant, but I guess their "all you can eat" breadsticks, salad and pasta are a drawing point. (Although I cannot imagine eating more than one helping there.) Chili's is good in a better-than-Taco Bell sort of way, and the others, well, I cannot draw a clear distinction between their menus.

I guess it's just because the are so accessible, and you don't have to venture downtown and search for parking. I don't know.

Just try to go to different places would ya? I mean what fun is it going to San Francisco and eating at The Hard Rock Cafe, or going to Boston and going to Chili's? It's not, so explore other options around your home. (And no, different Chinese buffets doesn't count.)
