Ummm...dunno. Is that the food we send up the the astronauts? :-)

>>No, our chain food sucks as well. For the most part - there are exceptions: The Charthouse comes to mind; Shula's Steakhouse....

>>>Right John and US chain food is haute cuisine not large portions of crap. :-) At least on the moon the fat people will weigh less

>>>>Nick, I've spent a lot of time in London, Southhampton, and Scotland. I've yet to find an English chain restaurant notable for anything. There's one chain that offers Scotish beef, forget the name but they're all over London, that is half-decent. I also had great meals in old hotel dining rooms in York, Inverness, and Edinburgh. But once you go outside of the small, quaint places it's not good.
