Applebee's

A Yelp Review of My Doordash Applebees: Exposé composed in the moment of discovery and exposition: Looking through my very slim options on a late Sunday evening, in a town isolated from most suburban things, nothing on the simple little app in my phone stood out to me. Yet, I hadn’t eaten all day, and thus, with health and body in mind, should order something to eat anyway. Wait! Maybe I can just make myself some pasta. At least it would be hot, fresh and seasoned to perfection. No pasta. Maybe I could conjure together some mediocre, midwestern-mother inspired casserole of sorts? No, no, no. Nothing good in the fridge nor pantry for that either. Okay, back to the app. The reliable, trusty, mediocre restaurant appears. ✨Applebees✨ Yes, I knew it would not be good. It would be cold, thrown together, and over priced for the dressed up cafeteria food that it is. Alas, begrudgingly, I select it. While knowing it would not be anything good enough to even be happy eating, the knowing is what felt safe. Broccoli cheddar mac and cheese? That has to be okay, right? It was. It was okay, and okay at best. It was of course cold, and wanting for salt, but it was exactly what I expected. As someone who does not like surprises, I would have to give this Applebee’s experience 5/5 stars, for living up to be exactly what I knew I would get. Thank you for being reliable, Applebee’s. You never, (and are never able to) disappoint.
