Do you miss a chain restaurant?

Yesterday I talked about the fast food place called Culver’s which is a chain of burger places in 25 states, mostly in the Midwest. It reminded me of the place I have not had a burger from in many years. Made me wonder if I am the only one who use to enjoy a chain restaurant and then moved and can no longer get that food anymore. I was stationed at Camp Pendleton in Southern California and I had my first In and Out burger, I think it was in Oceanside, CA if I remember right. We didn’t have In and Out where I came from and I was hooked on the first one. Whenever we got the time to get out in town we had to get a burger from there. Then I left California in 1988, no more In and Out for me. It wasn’t until 1996 that I went to Las Vegas and I seen one there. I stopped everything to get in there and get a burger. I was only in Vegas for 3 days and guess how many times I went there for a burger. Yep, 3 times I went there. I was lucky enough to go to Vegas at least once a year for like 6 or 7 years in a row and every time I went, I would stop in the In and Out at least once on every trip. I have not been back since and there are no In and Out’s near me. I miss their burgers. Is there a chain restaurant that you miss getting?

Growing up we had a Ponderosa Steakhouse not far from where we lived. After making money from my first babysitting job I treated my brother and I to dinner there.

I think the chain restaurant I miss the most is Red Robin. Love their burgers. But I haven't even tried curbside since quarantine started. Every summer I would go with my grandchildren and celebrate the end of the school year. It was our thing to do.
