Chain Reaction

Applebee's 'Neighborhood Bar and Grill' has officially opened its massive Fisherman's Wharf location, and is now capable of serving its signature American mega-chain fare to up to 400 shivering tourists. The exterior's grandiose arches have been painted red and sort of resemble a futuristic diner concept from the 1950's, and the interior showcases basically what you would expect from any of the 2,000+ locations nationwide. The menu features Applebee's standbys like the riblets platter, shrimp n' parmesan sirloin and apple chimicheesecake, but not necessarily all of the specials advertised on television. [Inside Scoop]
