    Almost every sit-down chain restaurant in my state closed down/failing because of quality issues or local competition. Chili’s, Red Lobster, Long John Silvers, Applebee’s…

    It was HUGE local news during the pandemic with franchises begging people to “Support their local Chili’s” and everyone laughed. Then one really loud owner bought lots of local ads that we don’t deserve it and the locals dunk on them.

    As of last month, another chain restaurant faded away, while more local restaurants popped up.

    Nature is healing.
