Reply #11: One really great thing I learned from moving to NY

[customerserviceguy]

a couple of years ago, is how lousy the Olive Garden tastes compared to genuine Italian restaurants. People here laugh when I tell them that folks out in the Pacific Northwest considered Olive Garden to be a good Italian restaurant.

Of course, my Northwest friends make the same laughing noises when I tell them that East Coasters think that Dunkin' Donuts coffee is "the bomb"!
