Friday the 13th means weirdness and so we're going to participate in some weirdness.
Now, granted, Friday the 13th weirdness usually means more of the random, unpredictable weirdness. Nonetheless, we are setting up the potential for random unpredictable weirdness by going on a progressive jaunt across the Waco restaurant landscape.
The theme is chain restaurants. We will start at Chili's for appetizers at 6:30 tomorrow night, then proceed to Red Lobster for the main course at 8:30-ish and finish with dessert at Cheddar's at 10-ish. Join us for all three or pop-in for one or two. Let's make it a big, roving WacoFork party and, at the same time, spread a little love from and for Waco's newest and coolest hyper-local website. (I mean WacoFork, I'm being self-aggrandizing here).
But, wait, that's not all.
Along the way, we're going to have a battle of wits between me, defending the dining goodness of places like Chili's and Red Lobster and Cheddar's, and the ever-cynical Cameron Weed, who will be the counterpoint to my point. It shall be called "In Defense Of Chains" and accordingly we will tweet as #In Defense and #In Chains. So even if you can't party with us, you can follow the shenanigans on Twitter. Also, by sometime on Saturday, when we've recovered from the calorie-fest, Weed and I will write a point-counterpoint blog as we attempt to establish whether or not chain restaurants get a bad rap.
