Funny this post got bumped right now. Last night The Adorable Francisco wanted to try Olive Garden since they are advertising on TV non-stop. Off we went about 8:30, parking lot full, huge throng of people standing around outside. They told me it would be an hour and forty-five minutes for a table. Meanwhile there was an independent Italian place not 50 yards away across the parking lot that was nearly empty. We went there instead and had a marvelous meal.
I just don't understand people sometimes.
