OK Guys…You know how often I harp about not liking franchise restaurants. But I guess I’ll have to EAT CROW on THIS meal…
While we were in Des Moines last weekend, our hotel was located close to an Applebee’s Restaurant. And since we were hot and tired and hungry, we decided to break down and give it a try. And I must admit…our meal was REALLY GOOD…and CHEAP!! (What a concept!)
It seems they have added a “2 meals for $20” section to their menu…so we started with a salad…

And then our entree…a seven oz. sirloin steak, a baked potato, and steamed broccoli. And it was just what the doctor ordered after a long day at the ball park.

Our excellent server was wearing an Iowa State promotional T-Shirt…but when she found out we were Iowa fans from Iowa City…our numerous glasses of very good iced tea turned out to be FREE on our bill. (She is a student here at the University of Iowa and she HATES wearing that crimson and gold Iowa State shirt…And of course we can’t blame her for that!)
So all in all, it was a perfect meal to end a perfect day of baseball!
