Cheddars Just another Average Restaurant

Ever since I moved to Waco one of the things that I noticed was it has an abundance of restaurants. Cheddars is a rather famous restaurant it has been around since 1979, and has over 130 restaurants’ in 23 states (“Cheddar's Casual Café). When Cheddars came to Waco at the end of January of 2005 it became one of the favorite stops for families and couples to eat out at. As soon as they opened up I remember driving by and seeing people lined up outside to get in to eat. This made me think it must be a popular place to eat with great service to have such a long line waiting to enter. My sisters said that they are a reasonably good restaurant. With all the good thing I have heard about Cheddars, and was also told by friends and family that I should go, I finally decided to go eat there.

Salmon is one of my favorite fish, and whenever I can get it, and cook it myself I will. But salmon can be one of the hardest fish to get right, because it is such a strong fish. In my opinion the salmon was not that good, but it wasn’t bad either. It was bland and didn’t have any favoring. It came with rice below it and it was also bland.

    In the 1950s, foods took a change for the better… or worse. Things that Americans now take for granted were rare novelties back then. A simple pouch of McDonald’s french fries, a Whopper from Burger King, or microwavable Swanson TV Dinner trays easily changed the “cult of domesticity” in many 1950-modern homes. Before this time, women were expected to spend hours in the kitchen preparing meals for their families. This new way of food preparation changed the amount of money spent on food, the quality of food, and the amount of time and effort spent making food.…
