Since burger talk seems to be current around here, allow me to share the 
following warning.

Avoid Cheddar's at all costs.

Now Cheddar's USED to have a pretty damn good burger. But, the other 
night, my son wanted a mushroom burger (which in the past we've always 
enjoyed) so we decided to stop in to the new McKinney Stacey Rd. location.

Well, now you can only order the burgers cooked medium-well or 
well-done. No amount of protestation matters. I am no fan of 
medium-well, but figure I'll give it a try. This thing was nasty. 
Overcooked, moistureless, flavorless, joyless shoe leather. This would 
have tasted better if they had simply thrown the patty in the trash.

The next night, we were on the prowl for a rebound burger. We stopped 
into Chili's after noticing they'd recently re-redone their burger menu. 
For a few months they really screwed their menu up - inexplicably so, 
removing old favorites for some oddball assembly line style burger 
ordering mechanism. Well, the old favorites are back, and taste VERY 
good. We ordered medium rare mushroom burgers and were rewarded with a 
very pink, juicy, flavorful burger.

Cheddar's - you're blowing it.

P.S. Another oddball - they are now serving EDAMAME with kids meals. 
What. The. EFF??? What kind of sexually uptight overwrought fishwife is 
going to order ginger soaked soybeans for their kids' meal? If the 
Menendez brothers could have showed proof they experienced this, they 
would have gotten off with justifiable homicide...
