IHOP buying Applebee's

I’m in Tallahassee. There used to be a Denny’s here, but it closed down some years back. If they reopened in a new location, it’s a secret. We’d never set out looking for food with the object of winding up there. You only have to eat there once to find that out!

Oh come on, Gainesville night owls can also choose from Steak ‘n’ Shake, Perkins, and Waffle House!

Personally, I miss Firpo’s, a wonderful and cheap greasy spoon diner that got me through many a long night after concerts, band practices, and study sessions lasted into the wee hours. Great reuben sandwiches, pie, chocolate chip pancakes as big as your head, and the “Firpo’s Feast” (all your typical breakfast foods, and lots of 'em) for $4.99!
