    do you like Olive Garden?
    i personally have only been there about 2-3 times, but i found this article funny about Olive Garden not really liking Kendra Wilkinson(one of Hugh Hefners GF's) talking about them and giving them free endorsment.
    Wall Street Journal article

    it also gave examples of how other companies and political candidates have to walk a fine line when certain people endorse them.

    she is way hot, but for me I grew up in the same town as they filmed the Soprano's right off Bloomfield ave. It has to be authentic for me. Godfathers Italian cuisine in Caldwell best Fetuccini alfredo in the business

      i've been to a couple of the small family owned joints here in louisville, they got some good eats, i've heard Rick Pitino goes to this one down on Frankfort Ave. in the Cresent Hill area of town, it is real small, but pricey, and has an old school feel about, or so i hear.

        Its decent but what frustrates me is when I bring up good Italian food and people mention Olive Garden among their favorite places.

        It is good enough to get some noodles and sauce, but don't insult my culture by calling it among the best Italian food. Bleh.

        As chains go, Romano's Macaroni Grill is LEAGUES ahead.

          Olive Garden is one of the best Italian places to eat at... breadsticks are top notch

            1 Tour of Italy for me, the local one is now letting you taste the wine before purchasing it, a cool little add-on.

                  yep, i have been 2 times in my life and really enjoyed the ceaser salad they bring out in a big bowl. theres not much on the menu (that i eat) that i couldnt cook at home, hence the reason i have only been twice.

                  here in memphis, like most cities i assume, food is really huge and the small, family owned places piss on the large chain places. would put a handful of places from "The Hill" area in St. Louis against any place in the northeast fwiw
