The Aftertaste of Restaurants

Olive Garden, Friday’s, Chili’s, Claim Jumper, Lucille’s BBQ House, Black Angus, Applebee’s, Bj’s, The Cheesecake Factory, The Elephant Bar, Red Lobster, The Soup Plantation, The Islands, are all many of the greatest restaurants we have always gone to. They all are pretty expensive but yet the food there is unforgettable; it just makes us want to go back twice. But why do we? We are all willing to take our chances and eat there but we do not even know why. We know that we get our money’s worth but is it really. Most of the time, we get great customer service but what about the other times? Or what happens if the food is not so great from what we expect it to be just because of how it looks. We all are taking a pretty big chance when going to these restaurants and just because we might get recommended to go there does not mean we all have the same taste. Have you ever noticed how the restaurant may be lonely at times but yet the hostess makes us wait? What is up with that, if there are free tables why not just sit us down; it only makes us less hungry to have to sit and wait some more to eat. Even when we are waiting they always try to offer us some appetizers or drinks. For example, I went to the Olive Garden the other day and they had us waiting for seats for about an hour. While we were waiting the bartender was mixing drinks and everyone was buying something to drink. It is like they do this on purpose. Do they just want us to wait? Do they just want us to spend our money first to see if we are good enough to eat?

If you really think about it, it really is not that worth it to go out and eat. It may seem great because of the food, but if you think about it look at everything else you are putting up with. But yet we always go back.
