You think I go to different restaurants than I do.

That's about the only real advantage to living in Los Angeles - out here, chains just don't really compete. Competition is fierce enough, and people want it badly enough, such that the Olive Gardens and Tony Romas of the world aren't nearly as ubiquitous. I'm sure there's plenty of Sysco in what I eat but having spent way too much time on cooking shows I'm a bit of a snob about what I pay someone else to cook for me.
