I like chains better than mom and pops in many cases.

There is often a lot of money behind the research into their menu items and the consistent way they are prepared. There is often a lot of money behind how they train their servers and money behind the décor. ( It is often quite pleasant) There is money protecting you from accidental allergy events. (Misplaced shellfish and nuts can do many of us in) I love, LOVE, Carrabas, Bob Evans, TooJays, Ruth Cris, PF Changs, and several others, and I am looking forward to this restaurant.

I say this because I am a decent cook and I have dined in some excellent and expensive restaurants in my lifetime just like most of us have.
