Back in the early 90s when I was working there, it was at least decent... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you can cook I however cannot If one thing would turn me off though it would be the high prices of eating out but that would be tangential. If I could cook too maybe I would eat in more but I just can't 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People **** on Applebee's and red lobster and olive garden constantly it's not bad I’m not a ****ter on them per se. I’m more a ****ter on the people who go to say, Olive Garden in NYC where Little Italy 🇮🇹 is right>>>>>>>>there. RL in Fl when there is a seafood shack around the corner. God bless ‘em though. Get those frozen breadsticks and breaded shrimp that came out of a ditch in Vietnam. Edited May 16 by stoshuaj 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I could cook too maybe I would eat in more but I just can't You CAN cook, you know you can. Some of the stuff you've shown means you're getting into it. It's whether you want to. Sometimes I just throw something together, and cooking for one is not all that difficult if you know how to portion. (I don't like leftovers.) 3 hours ago, stoshuaj said: I’m not a ****ter on them per se.

Get those frozen breadsticks and breaded shrimp that came out of a ditch in Vietnam. Way back in the 90s, there wasn't even a microwave in there, I knew several cooks who said so. (We don't have one in the hippy pizza joint, either.) But there's no oven in a Dunkin' Donuts either, they do a wet/dry steam to get 'em up to temp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had THE BEST seafood lasagna. It was amazing. We lived there for a few years, and there was another pizza joint with a seafood pizza that was awesome too. Even here, I try to support non-corporate local owners. It's more important than ever. Open-minded cool stuff won't happen unless we help it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy hours with okay food is easy on the per diem & allows the extra cash to go straight into your pocket. My buddy, who was constantly hitting on women wherever we went, called it Applebabes due to the local talent. Good times... 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PleaseBlitz Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Well if I'm ever living out of a hotel by a steel mill in BFE Texas, and Applebee's is the only convenient place that sells food, and I'm trying to embezzle my per diem, then I will consider going to an Applebee's. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Embezzle? We were paid a certain amount of money per day for meals. It didn't matter what you spent the difference was yours. I've also worked the other way with per diem - you're paid for the amount you actually spent up to the daily limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It came with slaw, which was perfect with the sando. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well a discussion about ****ing Applebee’s isn’t interesting without some embellishments and needlessly inflammatory language. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
