Actually, Tal, you might have hit on the answer....with Friendly's coming in, could DQ survive? Friendly's has a much better food menu and good ice cream to boot. Mr 07 and I were out one night in Feb and needed a quick dinner at about 6:30. Most places are overpacked at that time. We walked into DQ and there were only 2 other people in there. The food was mediocre at best and as someone noted all the workers were very immature. With so much competition right there, they could not survive by ice cream alone.
