Bob Evans out of the restaurant business

in this artcle it says bef is aquiring Pineland farms potato which adds another potato processing facility and a 900 hundred acre potato farm. a small glimpse of a plan to expand

Though i dont indulge in bob evans foods I do see bob evans refrigerated trailers in certain parts of the countryside. might want to keep an eye them.

 

So who the hell IS Bob Evans? Never heard of him. But I sure do miss the Bob's Big Boy chain in California. (Well, actually, I don't miss them anymore, because I haven't been to Cali in years.)
But I was particularly fond of the one in Barstow, and one in Bakersfield.
Sizzler. My understanding is that the chain itself went under. But certain franchise owners were allowed to reopen under the Sizzler name. (Can't remember where I got that, but I did get it somewhere.)
Shoney's, what a flippin' joke they were. Tiny portions of food, that wasn't very good anyway. There was also a Shoney's Motel, right close to the restaurant that used to be in St. George. Both the motel and restaurant are still there, but the motel has changed names, and the restaurant has undergone about three changes of ownership since Shoney's went out.

 

Wife worked at the one on Hanley Road in Mansfield, Ohio for almost 15 years.... sheeite went downhill fast.

 

I know the average KFC probably has questionable hygiene standards but is this a typo?

Bob's Big Boy was awesome back in the day. Great burgers and the best-ever malts in the chilled stainless steel cups. They tried to bring them back in SoCal about 10 years ago but didn't do so well.

 

^^ Lmao.. i was wondering the SAME!
