Isn't most (not all) chain food prepared at a central facility, frozen, shipped to the location and reheated/plated at the restaurant?

It's cheaper, healthier (and probably tastier) to buy a couple Lean Cuisines, toss them in the microwave and eat at home.

Also, I wouldn't call Capital Grille "reasonable dining" - way overpriced. I'd rather go to Ruth's Chris or a top-notch local steakhouse, pay the same prices or even slightly less, and get locally prepared fresh food.
