Listen, I know a lot of you are Millenials and you'll eat whatever Bourdain tells you to eat but you should really give Applebees another chance. Pic related is my lunch today and frankly, I was wowed.

>10 oz sirloin, medium well with herbed butter -perfection!
>Loaded tots and a side of fries, hot cruchible and fresh
>polite portion of fried onion straws to crown the steak
>Dr. Pepper on request

I was able to complete my business lunch and be totally satisfied with my meal. All for less than $18.

Why do people hate on "Bees?"
This is damn near a 5 star experience in Asia. Don't be memes. Give Applebees a try.

i ate at applebees once. the only reason is because i had a gift card. that place was the most vile, disgusting excuse for a restaurant. everything was over seasoned with some shitty ass season and floating in butter. the shrimps were like chewing bubble gum. the steak was like a fucken chunk of leather. if i never go to applebees again, that will be too fucken soon.

I went there last year sometime and had a burger and fries. I was surprised at how good it was, I'm not the biggest of french fries fan but I've always liked the fry seasoning there. I cleaned my plate.
The only gripe I had was, they didn't serve dr. pepper or mr. pibb. as a protest I refused to drink any of the water she brought for me

My friend went to Applebee's once and they spilled a hot skillet on his bare lap. Pretty bad burns but the manager gave them a 50$ gift card and appetizers and drinks for the rest of the night. Meal was entirely free, of course. He says he would do it again.

I love restaurants like Applebees and Ruby Tuesday.

The menus are refreshingly unpretentious. The drink specials are great.

I always get a bacon cheeseburger with fries and some beer. Get a full belly and a solid buzz for 20 bucks (after a generous tip). It's great.

One time I had a hotel across the street from a Ruby Tuesday and I got fucking wasted at 2pm. I was the only person at the bar, it was glorious.

I used to go to Applebee's with my mom when she was on a low carb diet. It wasn't the worst. I met a cute bartender that was working there and we hooked up, even though I was with my mom all the time.

Long story short, the bartender got beaten to shit by a bunch of black people the other night and is half dead.

Fucking Applebee's.
