I'm a little embarrassed to admit it, but hey...this is a travel board, so here goes...


For a while, I did not know that Wolfgang Puck was an actual chef. I thought it was just a name of a bunch of crappy restaurants where you can get a tiny flavorless pizza for $11 near your departure gate.


To me, all of the Applebee's / Chili's / Ruby Tuesday / Friday's / Bennigan's / etc. are interchangeable. I occasionally will dine at one...usually at ORD, DFW, or TPA. Although if I have time at ORD, I'll walk over to that sportsbar-ish place near the AA terminal instead: better burgers.

The other place I'm apt to eat food like this is DEN, but there I hit the Mexican place upstairs in the UA terminal. The regular bartender there knows what I like and if I have three beers I usually only pay for one or two.
