OT: Is there a worse actor anywhere than"Papa John"

[SFW]

I dont see a problem either. The bread sticks are good imo. Not like i go there very often. Maybe the restauarant they reveiwed was awful. I actually like the Chilli's by my house but i went to one in El Centro and it sucked.

The breadsticks are awesome! Good is an understatement.

Wait. You live in New York and you're eating Papa Johns? No entiendo.

Anyway, I can't blame you for having different tastes than me. But, as far as one of my favorite posters supporting Peyton Manning, I can't let that go.
If Peyton Manning thought $100 million was enough, he wouldn't still be trying to make extra bank with his pizzas. The dude seems like a money-hogging egocentric dickhead. We can never make Peyton poor (and I wouldn't want to do that anyway - I don't hate him in that way. But we can at least take a principled stand. No support for Mannings.)

Never enough money for Manning, hell he said yes to that Oreo licking commercial.

It was an investor review of many locations.

Some people like McDonalds and Burger King as well. Just a matter of taste

What the hell is a mac and cheese California roll? Is it mac and kheese instead of cheese?

FWIW, some believe it is about something much bigger than bread sticks and cooking pasta in salted water.

A hidden agenda? No way.

No matter what we read, post or believe from spending time on the internet the only real way to judge a restaurant is to eat there and experience it for yourself. I personally really like Olive Garden and absolutely love their breadsticks.

THE EATBEAT: Long-awaited Olive Garden receives warm welcome

After a lengthy wait for Olive Garden to open in Grand Forks, the lines were long in February. The novelty is slowly wearing off, but the steady following attests the warm welcome.

My first visit to Olive Garden was during midafternoon, so I could be sure to get in. After a late breakfast, I figured a late lunch would be fashionable.

The place is impressive. It’s fashioned in Tuscan farmhouse style with a welcoming entryway. There is seating for those who are waiting.

My booth was near the kitchen, and I watched the waiters in white shirts, ties, black trousers and aprons adorned with gold-colored towels. They were busy at midday, punching in orders and carrying out bread and pasta.

It had been a few years since I ate at the older Olive Garden in Fargo, so I studied the two manageable menus offering appetizers, soups and salads, grilled sandwiches, pizza, classic dishes, chicken and seafood and filled pastas.

At length, I asked my server what she would recommend. She suggested chicken Alfredo, and I went with that. Instead of the raspberry lemonade she suggested, I drank water.

She first brought me the familiar Olive Garden salad bowl with crisp greens, peppers, onion rings and yes — several black olives. Along with it came a plate with two long, warm breadsticks.

The chicken Alfredo ($10.95) was warm and comforting on a cold day. The portion was generous. My server was ready with Parmesan cheese.

As I ate, I noticed the vases and planters with permanent flower displays on the ledges. There are several dining areas with arched doorways. And there is a fireplace that adds warmth to the decor.

Olive Garden has an attractive bar area to the right of the entryway. The restaurant has a full liquor license and a wine list offering a wide selection to complement Italian meals. Nonalcoholic beverages include coolers, specialty coffees and hot teas.

On a hot summer day, I will try the raspberry lemonade that was recommended.

There’s a homemade soup, salad and breadstick lunch available until 4 p.m. daily for $6.95.

An olive branch on menu items signified low-fat entrees. There is a Garden Fare Nutrition Guide available for customers seeking gluten-free food. And for those with food allergies, Olive Garden has an Allergen Information Guide.

All in all, it is the largest and most beautiful restaurant now operating in Grand Forks. It attracts visitors from out of town as well as people who live here.

Olive Garden is part of the Darden chain of restaurants that also operates Red Lobster. There are about 700 restaurants, including four Olive Gardens in North Dakota’s major cities.

Olive Garden has gained a following since 1982 with its ample portions and relaxed ambience. It’s known for its classic lasagna, fettuccine Alfredo and chicken Parmigiana.

How did the Olive Garden get so much advertising in here?

The breadsticks made them do it.

If the best they have is this Darden crappola, they should rename the town Shitty Forks.

Well the were just rated the 2nd worst restaurant state.

And she did become famous for writing a review of such 'crappola'
