The Unexpected Return of Chain Restaurants

Who’s hungry? 🍔🌮 In this episode of The Best Things with Craig and Aaron, we’re diving into the unexpected comeback of casual dining restaurant chains! Remember when places like Chili’s, Olive Garden, and Applebee’s were the go-to spots for family nights and endless breadsticks? Well, they’re making a splash again, and we’re here for it!

We’ll chat about what’s driving their resurgence (spoiler: it’s more than just the molten lava cake) and share our personal experiences and favorite dishes. Of course, no episode would be complete without the Best Things Bracket, where we’ll pit these iconic chains against each other to crown the ultimate champion. Will it be the home of the Bloomin’ Onion, the land of unlimited soup and salad, or a dark horse contender?

Whether you’re a die-hard fan of fajitas sizzling their way to your table or just curious about what the buzz is all about, this episode is packed with fun, food, and friendly competition. Tune in, and let’s find the best thing about casual dining together!
