These restaurants chain threads are fun. This should be it for me. There's a lot of national chains my city doesnt have. I went out of town and had them.

Golden Corral-On the way here soon. I can't wait. Ate it in Michigan....awesome buffet

The Sizzler-Had it in Florida, like Pondarosa, but better

A&W restaurant-good burgers

Long John Silvers-Closet one here is like 40 minutes away

We got so many chains near by, I can't think of any that we don't have that I would want. In fact take some of our chain restaurants, we got too many

I wish we had a In-N-Out restaurant here, i've heard their burgers are awesome. Also Whataburger, we had one here years ago, but they closed down.

Not so much a restaurant, but a c-store, they just started building WaWas in our area!!! They're mostly in the PA/NY area, and they're building 5 in the Central Fla area. One just opened last week near SeaWorld and there's another opening near Orlando Int'l next week!!

Also, I wish we had Meijer's stores down here. They are mostly in Indiana and Ohio. Set up just like Walmart Supercenter, but they have a whole lot more cooler stuff than WM.

We do too, but the way I see it, why not have the ones you enjoy?

We went for years without a Jack In The Box in this area, then around 1998, they started building them, it seemed like, on every corner, like McDonalds and Starbucks. Then about five years ago, they closed most of them down, now all you see is boarded up Jack In The Box buildings.

We got a Popeyes about six or seven years ago, three miles from my home, I eat there for the first time, about three weeks ago. It was alright, but I prefer KFC.
