That truck stop brings up happy memories of traveling back home from Chicago, I knew I was about halfway home at that point.

Have Ponderosa Steak Houses gone extinct? Are they a Michigan thing? Is Michigan Mid-west?

Michigan is its own very unique little ecosystem You can't drive through it (peninsula), so people only ever go there on purpose. It's like a teeny little Alaska

Millions of Crows posted:Have Ponderosa Steak Houses gone extinct? Are they a Michigan thing? Is Michigan Mid-west?  Here's one from the outskirts of Columbus, OH. I drove past it once for work ~5 years ago and the sign was advertising "Oriental night." Also when I was a kid I got a "spy camera" from Ponderosa. They did a promotional giveaway as a tie in with the Bill Cosby film Leonard Part 6. Edit: Notice that the Ponderosa is next to a title loan place. Recently Ohio passed legislation that reigned in payday loan providers so they have been replaced with a proliferation of car-title loan storefronts. moller fucked around with this message at 05:51 on Oct 28, 2015 |

I drive by there a lot and wonder how they've stayed in business for so long, another place I haven't been in since the 80's. I'm guessing it's mostly elderly people that keep it going? How about The Spaghetti Warehouse? Are they only in Columbus or are there others in the Midwest? They use to be okay, kind of a cool setting at least and still much better than the Olive garden.

They use to be okay, kind of a cool setting at least and still much better than the Olive garden. Every other one I've seen is built like a regular restaurant and dressed up to look like a warehouse. That's the only one I know of that's an actual warehouse.

Dude No Have you really honestly driven through Mississippi and Alabama? Because if you had been there, you would know nothing compares. I went to a Ponderosa on a lark not too many years ago when I saw one in like Montana or something...what I want to know is, are there still BONANZAs? WOW There are! And considering there are no Ponderosas in Montana, I must have gone to a Bonanza. Who can keep them straight edit: oh no Bonanzas either; North Dakota maybe

Also bloody marys are gross as gently caress and I frankly don't care if it's mixed stuff. I have heard nothing on the personality of Dave Sobelman either, but he opposes the streetcar so he can't be all bad.

Oscar's is the best pub burger (same style as sobelman's), and it's larger and way cheaper. also get out bloodies are amazing! dave sobelman's customer service motto is "the customer is always wrong and I'll prove it by responding on social media" lol also he lives near me and all his giant SUVs have "soblman" license plates and they regularly drive like assholes
