I never have eaten at the Olive Garden....

Edited on Thu Jun-22-06 01:32 PM by Wetzelbill

Ever.

Not that I would be opposed to, I just have never ate there before.

Not exactly going to be a Jeopardy question, but I figured I may as well start an Olive Garden thread, since everyone else has. :)

1. Me neither. Politics aside, how tasty can a cookie cutter chain restaurant

be? Marie Calanders, Velvet Turtle, Outback Steakhouse, TGIF.... they all pretty much suck, right?

4. maybe not suck

but they can't be as good as a non-chain restaurant, imho. I would prefer to not eat at a chain, because they all basically are the same, you know? Same concept, same competition.

Of course, who am I to talk? I love fast-food and that is the worst garbage ever, haha.

2. Neither have I

which may have more or less to do with the fact that I'm in England, and I don't think that they operate over here.

3. I've eaten at an Olive Garden

lunch in the land of chain restaurants.....Fairfax County, VA - Fair Oaks area. I also used to go eat at the NRA cafeteria, our building was about a quarter mile away from the NRA building off I-66, they have a very nice cafeteria.

6. I bet they do

I don't mind chain restaurants, I eat fast food often enough. Just never been to an Olive Garden.

I like cafeterias, I haven't been to one in a long time. I also like truck stops too. Old greasy spoon food reminds me of when I was a kid, haha.
