So, if you live in Southern California, you've almost certainly heard of this place (pic related), and I had for many years before finally actually going to one.

The first thing I noticed is that there was no "Chicken and Waffles" special that I could try, and even though they had various specials, I had to actually read the whole menu before figuring out how to order chicken and waffles at the same time, which considering that the combination is in their fucking name, baffled me in terms of marketing.

But honestly, eating chicken and waffles at the same time is about as exciting as you'd imagine it to be. Of course it's tasty, but there are so many other things on the menu that I was forced to consider because there isn't some simple combo I could order before checking off the "ate chicken and waffles at Roscoe's" box on my bucket list that I actually appreciated it.

What other chain restaurants have managed to avoid making "that one thing that once you've eaten you don't have to go there anymore because it was the only reason you went in the first place because it's famous, and now that you've tried it you can post it on social media and move on with your life because you have no fucking idea if it was actually good or not, but you tried it, so you can tell people about it and either recommend it or not"?
