“We had a birthday party here and it was a lot of fun. The food and service was good but a little pricey. The only thing: most of the multiplayer games were inoperative so only one player at a time could play. Otherwise, this was a great time!“

“A Splendid Time with Our Applebee’s Virtuoso, Lars

Imagine, if you will, a universe where the clinking of cutlery and the hum of half-price appetizers blend into a cosmic symphony. There, amidst the golden glow of mozzarella sticks and the existential steam of a sizzling skillet, stood our waiter — a maestro in an apron, a poet with a notepad.

He didn’t just take orders, man. No, he received transmissions. With a twinkle in his eye that said, "I’ve been to the edge of the menu and back," he guided us through the labyrinth of lime-touched margaritas and boldly sauced wings. When he spoke, it was velvet — a crooner’s voice amidst the static chatter of the lunch crowd.

And oh, the timing! Like Ringo on a good day, every refill, every extra napkin, every knowing nod arrived with metronomic precision. This wasn’t just service, it was performance art.

When the check came, it wasn’t a transaction; it was a bittersweet farewell, like the final chord of A Day in the Life. We weren’t just customers — we were comrades, briefly united under the fluorescent lights of casual dining.

To our waiter — you didn’t just serve food, mate. You served an experience. And for that, we raise our plastic tumblers of Pepsi and say: Bravo.“
