Not exactly a restaurant but the raspberry jelly donuts I still crave 20 years later
Krispy Kreme - Doughnuts, Coffee & Drinks
I first heard about this place from my daughter’s bff who had one near their college. Caffeinated beverages and a few non caffeine items.

It’s been quite a lot since I’ve been to a Bickford’s as they’ve all closed near me. But they had 4 items I loved. Grilled blueberry muffin, strawberry festival waffle, home fries & an Apple Dutch Baby. I can’t really deceive what it is but if yo...

Food is meh, but the baked apples are my favorite. And the store is a blast to walk through. Traditional American Breakfast

I’m a huge fan of Canes ever since we tried it Ohio. Luckily 2 opened within an hours drive from me. Never had the sandwich but I prefer my tender with their honey mustard. Fries are crinkle and loaded with salt. Ask for no salt if you don’t love sal...
Raising Cane's
Ok I came for Donny but stayed for the Jenni sandwich. This very quickly became a summer staple for my family. Mac & Cheese, burgers, salad and black & white shakes

The Red Robin near me isn’t great but hit one in Washington DC, or anywhere in the South and I promise it will be awesome. My favorite is the California chicken sandwich. Crispy chicken is good as well. Fries have a seasoning that’s usually perfect.
Red Robin: Family Friendly Burger Restaurant
Some of my favorite childhood memory meals
The Old Spaghetti Factory: Family Friendly Italian Restaurant
Not exactly a far reaching chain but it’s off the hook for chain seafood

Not my typical fave style pizza but the Boston one always has amazing slices!

Hard Rock has some interesting meals bbq is always great. Chicken sandwich was pretty good too. I just like the memorabilia.
Washington DC - Hard Rock Cafes
Dessert
Orange chicken is pretty much the only thing I eat there but my family loves it. I’m a big fan of the key lime, red velvet, banana, coconut cream, & Dulce de leche. Tiramisu is pretty good too!
The Cheesecake Factory
Again not top notch food but comfort food. I like the crispy chicken wrap with honey mustard. The kids like the blue shark drink. Obviously the best part is the ice cream for dessert.
Friendly's | Family Restaurant & Ice Cream
I’m not going to lie I hate the food here. I we had fun back in my 20s because they had fun drinks. But the stand out for me is the Sizzilin' Caramel Apple Blondie.
Applebee's Neighborhood Grill + Bar - Your Local Restaurant
They have some fun seasonal blizzards and I love the peanut crunch topping.

My kids love the fries and avocado bacon chicken sandwich. We also like the black & white shake, cherry blossom shake and the chocolate too
Shake Shack: Home Page
I haven’t actually eaten the chicken in decades but oldest loves their fries. Only thing I can recommend is their cinnamon apple pie. It reminds me of the 90s McDonald’s version.
Popeyes
Love their cinnamon sugar pretzel bites with caramel sauce.
Auntie Anne's Pretzels: Freshly Baked Soft Pretzels
I’ve tried a handful of their cookies. I have a sugar addiction and I cannot eat an entire cookie. We cut them in 4’s and share. Banana cream and pink sugar cookie are my favorite
