Any Restaurant?

Went to a great brunch today with the family of one of my UpStreet kids. Great food and company, really enjoyed it. During brunch a funny travel story came up. A couple of years ago I did a crazy day trip to LA for work. I was only supposed to be there for 3 hours for a lunch meeting. I think I left at 6am and got home at midnight. I told the people I was meeting that lunch was my treat and we could go anywhere. I figured we'd go to a restaurant with some LA character, maybe Pink's hotdogs or something. Instead they asked for the Sizzler down the street. At first I thought they were kidding, but we really did go to Sizzler. Oh well, from a business perspective the meeting was so-so, but the Sizzler part makes for a good story now.
