Chili's
This last week, I went to Chili's for dinner. I certainly wasn't having fun as their slogan might suggest that people do there. It was miserable. The service was slow, my beer wasn't cold, the food was cold, and looked like it had been microwaved. I remember eating at Chili's when I was a young kid and really enjoying it, but this last week, I had a dining experience far from enjoyable. Now, as always, I encourage folks to offer up their own opinions; you might have a wonderful Chili's experience in the near future. However, what I can tell you is that I was most certainly not impressed. I ordered the Buffalo chicken fajitas and when they were brought to the table, the plate was not sizzling and steaming as it usually does. Perhaps it was just an off night for Chili's, or maybe the restaurant is in serious trouble. This restaurant critic will not be going back to give them another try anytime soon.

Mimi's Cafe Corporate Troubles
As soon as Mimi's Cafe went corporate, the restaurant started to go downhill. While they are still a profitable business, customers and employees alike are starting to complain about the food and the way that the restaurant is run. It is unfortunate to see a nice restaurant such as Mimi's to fall victim to Corporate America. While the owners of the company enjoy increased profits, the
employees(hosts, servers, cooks, etc.) continue to lose out on more
and more benefits and perks that they previously enjoyed, such as employee dining discounts. The customers at the restaurant are suffering as well, as a result of the corporate buyout. The quality of food that Mimi's Cafe uses is not the same as it used to be. They have switched many products in order to save money at every corner. Their lemonade, their fresh graded cheese, their salsa, and many other items have changed for the worse in order to save money. While the food at Mimi's continues to be mediocre at best, it is becoming harder and harder to enjoy any dining experience at Mimi's given these poor changes in management and quality.
