You can only eat dinner from one chain restaurant for the rest of your life...

Whatever food you choose to eat will have no adverse effects on your health, or on the environment (so you can eat all the steak you like without guilt!). Also, price is not an issue, as a wealthy benefactor is paying for it all. You will not be able to get dinner from any other source ever. Which restaurant do you choose?



I choose The Outback Steakhouse, baby. Bring on the cheese fries and Victoria's filets!

A year ago I would have said Outback, but I haven't had great meals there during my last few trips (to several different locations).

Probably On the Border. Their tortilla chips are sick good and there is enough variety that I could probably be happy there for a pretty long period of time.

I was thinking of that one, too. But then I'd have to hear lurker whine about how they got rid of Sheila's Blackened Chicken Pasta every time!

My thoughts exactly. I told the wife last time we went that I'm not sure I want to go back. There is just something different about the way they are using their meat.

My vote would probably be PF Changs right now.

If local chains count:

Taco Mac

Otherwise, for national chains, it'd be PF Changs.

It can't be worth me having to drive to Milwaukee to try it. I'd be fine with the blissful ignorance of Olive Garden.

Actually, I've noticed a decline in quality as well. I just figured it was due to moving to Connecticut, and that the one we went to back in Illinois was still superb. Maybe it's more global than I thought....

Cheescake is a good thought because of the menu variety and the fact that it's frequently changed. Plus they serve Coke products.

That siad I've been real disappointed with them in the last couple of years (decreased price) so I think I'd be inclined to Stoney River, simply cause their stone puppies are to die for.

If my life were to only last a few more years, I'd say Outback. Mainly because if I ate their Aussie Cheese Fries every time I went, and I do and would, I'm pretty sure a heart attack would be coming soon.

As for Italian, anyone else in the Philly and Boston area ever eat at Vinny T's? I've been to the one near Philly and loved it.

Wait a minute, so we're in a fantasy world where the food doesn't affect your health, it doesn't affect the environment, and there's a mysterious magical benefactor that is willing to foot the bill for everything, and yet... I'd still have to adhere to the Chick-Fil-A Sunday closure?? This is an outrage.

Fine. I'm willing to fast on Sundays. It'll make that Monday morning 12-nugget pack all the sweeter. Mmmmmm...

I just went to one the other day in seekonk Mass,and it was pretty good. Kind of like a casual Magianos.

My wife got the Chicken Parm and loved it and I had the penne and vodka which was also good. And that garlic thing they give you with the bread is really good.

I'd probably say Texas Roadhouse, but that could also be because I'm craving steak right now.
