Restaurant X...

First off, this is my opinion of this particular place. I actually like the restaurant franchise, just that every time we have eaten there I haven't been pleased. It could be just the one in my area, but this is my rant about it.
I'll call them - Restaurant X. It is a nice family friendly place. Some might even dress up & make it a date night place. But majority of the time the wife & I have tried to eat there, we have been disappointed. Our appetizers are great, but when it comes to the main entrees that we've ordered... there is usually more to be desired. We usually end up saying that the next time we go there, we will only order the appetizers. Which never happens. Then we try again & again... & again. I'd say that 95% of our visits haven't been that good. But for some reason, we still try. Then comes the commercials & this is why I'm writing this rant. We've seen several commercials, including the most recent, that have promoted some good looking dishes. Again, we are usually disappointed that our "local" restaurant either isn't carrying the current special, or just doesn't seem to know how to make it. Disappointment. So the most recent commercial had two of our favorite dishes advertised. One with sausage, which my wife loves... & one with chicken, which under current conditions is what I should be eating. I tried to turn the channel during the commercial, but my wife made me rewind it. I knew what was going to happen. We were going to convince ourselves that we should give them another shot. To which we did... last night.
The place was PACKED!! We waited a good 15 mins. for our table... we better NOT be disappointed. I've already invested too much into this venture. We order our usual appetizers, which is the best part of the meal. Then comes our specials which we saw on TV... I take my first bite & ... OMG!! It was good!! My wife was also pleased with her dish & for one night, we were right to give them another shot. I didn't eat the whole thing because it was probably not good for me, but I felt great eating there... until I saw the bill.
I'm not a big fan of giving places that I haven't been happy with, second chances... But for some reason I'm open to giving this place a shot. Maybe it's because its my wifes favorite type of food, maybe it's because I love the appetizers. I don't know... but I'm sure we'll be back there sometime in the future.

As for the workouts this morning... It was good. I got about half way through before I really felt the work. It was on my bicep cable concentration curls that I felt pumped. Still hovering around 190 lbs. But I ain't gaining... so that's a plus. Well I better get back to work... Till next time...
