So many places I’d likely never think of going when abroad (though I do enjoy stopping by foreign Mickey D’s just to see how much better their menus are than ours). My last trip to Dubai, I thought it so weird to see Outback Steakhouse and similar places near the Burj Khalifa. My Dad even ate a burger at TGI Friday’s a few times in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia years ago when there for work.
