I went to lunch with E, a frequent dining companion. When asked what she felt like eating, E said "Something really bad for me." So, to Friendly's we went. (Tatnuck Square, Worcester)
E loved the barbecue cheddar chicken melt (hold the bacon), and I thoroughly enjoyed my medium-well All America burger (L,T,O, no cheese, but mayo! Yes!). They don't serve ginger ale, which is always a disappointment, but the fountain Coke was a good substitute. I also got a glass of ice water and it was pretty good. No nasty chemical or bleach taste.
The meal was capped off with a Happy Ending sundae for me (Hunka Chunka PB Fudge ice cream, hot fudge sauce) and a Reeses Peanut Butter sundae for E (vanilla ice cream, Reese's peanut butter cups, peanut butter sauce, and hot fudge). It was a chocolate and peanut butter day for us. Both sundaes were delicious. I'm craving another one now. But I'm making do with Trader Joe's milk chocolate cranberries (good in small doses - no need to eat more than 15 or so at a time.)

I love Friendly's.
Some restaurants will serve you 7-up (or Sprite, or Sierra Mist, or whatever lemon-lime soda they have) if you order ginger ale and they don't have it. I wish I could remember where it happened to ne recently. So disappointing.
They offered Sprite, and usually I take it, but it's a sad substitute for the calming qualities of a good glass of ginger ale. I opted for the Coke, because I love a good, bubbly, carbonated glass of Coke.
