Often there will be a local artist sitting near the front creating some new piece and the place is totally decorated with local artwork that's up for sale. It's such a fun place to go. That one's located on I-Drive!
Oh Katherine, I LOOOOOVE Cafe Tu Tu Tango!
My favorite chain, though, is Moe's Southwest Grill because their John Cocstostan quesadillas kick bootay
. I also love the biscuits at Red Lobster. I give them 4 drools!

NP, but might I suggest using a little extra garlic than what they say? I think it really pops when you add a little extra.

Yeah, and a little bit of parsley for color, adds the final, "Red Lobster" touch.

Yeah... to the garlic sauce, though... not the biscuits. LOL.
Might have a funny texture if you do it the other way, wouldn't it?

Really, and it doesn't give it a funny taste or texture? Hmmm... cool, we'll have to try that.

Oh my gosh I'm so excited that someone else knows about Cafe TuTu Tango.
It's so much fun there!!

Brendan and I also totally love Moes! The portions are huge and totally delicious! "Welcome to Moe's!!"

I'm also a giant fan of Pita Pit.

New fave: Rib Crib. It's the best BBQ I've ever had. The sauce is awesome, the meats are smoky, and the sides are way above average. SOOO good.

For pizza, I'd say Minsky's. I think that's a local chain, though. But if you ever have a chance, try it. My favorite is the Five Star Cheese Crisp, extra sauce, on pan, well done, with chicken added to it. So unbelievably yummy.

Cascone's is good, homestyle Italian (triple-tasty calamari), but I think that's a local chain too.

For fast food, I vote Arby's. They don't get a lot of attention, but MAN do they make some good sammiches. And I have to be honest. I like Taco Bell. I just do.

OMG! I completley forgot about the Rib Crib! There was one across from the University of Oklahoma football stadium, where i used to work, and we would go over there and eat for lunch.

That is when i fell in love with BBQ!!!!

My favorite is Aladdins, which serves Middle Eastern food. It's a chain that started in the Cleveland area but now has locations in Chicago and the Washington DC area. The food is very tasty and the prices are cheap. Their pitzas (pizzas on pita bread) are especially good, and they have a lot of vegetarian selections.

We have Aladdins here in NZ, but it serves Dona Kebabs.

The BEST stromboli I've ever had was in Altoona, PA. Stacy might be able to help me out but it's a place called Al's Pizza. Trav grew up there and loved them so he took me there when we visited his parents and I love it! Too bad it's about 5 hours away

We don't really have chain restaurants here (except McDonalds!), but there's a Buffalo Grill near us (there are a lot of those in France too). They do THE BEST steaks - don't get to go often though because bf is vegetarian
