As a lawyer and someone who is known to enjoy the occasional fine-dining experience as much as anyone, I am often teased by my friends for my zealous devotion to my local Sizzler, even to the extent of holding my birthday lunches there.

I don’t know how the chain is travelling in the US but here in Australia they have had a bumpy road, the brand name and concept having apparently been sold and repurchased and the number of outlets trimmed several times over the last 20 or so years but they abide.

It’s certainly not a business or romantic destination, but it doesn’t pretend to be. Unlimited fresh fruit and vegetables and decent steaks/seafood at a fair price – what’s not to like?

(Oh yes, and their bathrooms are clean too – never underestimate the commercial appeal of that).

A couple days ago I tried “The Egg and I” here in Albuquerque. It’s a franchise, but not ubiquitous. I had their Eggs Benedict and was impressed. The poached eggs and hollandaise were fine, but the big win was a generous slice of tender smoky ham.

IHOP does not do non-breakfest foods very well.
