    I ate at Applebees once in like 2003 while in the states with my parents as a kid, we dont really have em here but do get plenty of American TV so we tried it. If I recall correctly it was decent. I had some kinda lime chicken dealie.

        I can actually vaguely remember a few places we ate that were chains that we didnt have local access to. I remember kina liking Olive Garden but I think that was cause they had unlimited breaf and i was a preteen on a road trip, we expected a hard rock cafe to suck but i also ended out ordering something that wasnt what id expected based on the menu description and didnt like much but it wasnt a quality thing,i remember it was some kinda bbq pork sandwich and it was like a chop on a sandwich where i was thinking pulled ans the sauce was a carolina style thing that i didnt think worked with a sandwich…yknow there may be more to my being a chef now than stumbling into it, i csn recall some meals. Probably remember it cause American TV commerucals reminsing me of the one experience. The closest Fox broadcaster to my was Rochester New York and due yo watching the Simpsons and stuff I became super familiar with their local business. We had an ongoing joke that Celino and Barnes were partners both in law and life and when ads started airing with them working solo we were devastated. There was also Auto Injury Attorney Willian Mattar and we were really frustrated he didnt realize his name rhymes with car. He eventually got there but used Injury Auto-urney first.
