International House of Bitches

They're becoming a brothel.

Unless they change the over priced food and the terrible service I am still not eating there anyway.

Give me Dennys or give me death!

Beer.

Yeah, sorry, no thanks.

You have something like this:

Home made breakfast 10/10

Local breakfast diner 8/10

IHop 4/10

Denny's 2/10

2 day old canned dog food that has sat in the sun. 1/10

I have actually not tried the dog food, it might be better.

Hope they enjoy bankrupcy

Personally, I like iHop. But I like breakfast in general. I use to go with my friends back home all the time. Haven't gone much here, though...

In between IHOP and Denny's. Denny's is hot garbage. It's not worthy of being thrown in a dumpster

Why are people so elitist about breakfast food/restaurants in general? Nobody thinks you're savvy or unique for saying "DAH LOCAL STUFF IS BETTER THAN CHAINS!" But breakfast in particular isn't really a big deal. Yeah, there is stuff out there that's better than Denny's, but breakfast is the hardest of the three meals to screw up.

Yet somehow Denny's still manages to turn my ass into a garden hose, spraying gallons of shit all over the inside of my toilet.

I mean even McDonald's doesn't do that to me.

Have you ever cooked? Because this really isn't actually true depending on what you're cooking. There are some very easy dinner meals to make whereas good fried eggs require a decent bit of timing and savvy compared to a lot of things I've made for dinner. Spaghetti for instance. Or even steak. Or pretty much any veggies that you just throw in a pot. Or chili. Or burgers. All ridiculously easy to cook. A good omelette?Not as simple

And if something is that easy isn't that even more reason to criticize them for fucking it up? And yes, dennys is seriously awful compared to other diners. And dikitain is right. Denny's will give me bubbleguts and tastes like a fucking dumpster carcass

Never even seen a cracker barrel, let alone tried one. IS it an east coast thing?

And I admit, breakfast isn't my favorite meal of the day, but I do love hash browns/home fries and I like sausage links/patties (if they are good) and of course I used to freaking love bacon before I started trying to eat healthy.

Now, making them at home is obviously the best if your a good cook (and I am), this is especially true for waffles as it's almost impossible to find anywhere that makes even a decently good waffle. Me and my friend perfected the art over a few years and waffles are one of the few things I have had someone else make for more more then a few times (cause my friend had it down!!).

Local places can do the hashbrowns/home fries well, not home level.....but good. They can do egg dishes (I don't eat them), and even make decent pancakes. The sausages/bacon varries from place to place and usually isn't as good as home made (especially the bacon sadly).

Then you drop to IHOP...they do.......ok....with pancakes, their waffles are pathetic, and honestly I think their hash brown are frozen (or at least frozen ones from the store can taste better). It has the same...weirdish aftertaste you get from frozen hash browns at least. Their sausage is also bad enough that I only got them once......although they were still better then Denny's.

Denny's.........some people love this place. Their bacon is......I mean I've liked turkey bacon better, and I don't like turkey bacon. All fat pretty much and usually not even cooked properly.

But that isn't the worst....the worst is their sausage. Unless it's changed ....its actually worse then the $1 a box budget sausage links you can get from the store (banquet? something like that). I get that old people (really old now I guess since I qualify) lose their taste buds, but how anyone else eats that food is beyond me. Worst sausages I have ever had, hashbrowns are better at mc donalds, and I don't even remember the rest of whatever I got.

I'm sure it varies from denny's to dennys but honestly I'm not gonna try a bunch of them to see if one is slightly better. I would pretty much always rather skip a meal then eat at dennys and I would need to skip a bunch of them before I would be happy to eat there.

I don't eat eggs, so it's a bit like a mute person making music, but mine are supposedly extremely good. You just gotta use enough butter in the pan and not cook the eggs too long. I make great breakfast sandwiches as well (with fried ham/bacon and cheddar cheese, after browning the roll in butter as well).

But yeah, some things do take alot of practice to get down exactly right. Waffles as I mentioned above, have a HUGE range, with most places just making pancakes in waffle form (that is not a waffle!!). Sausage btw is mostly based on the ingredients you use, although there are tricks (steam the sausage links first to cook them well, before browning them, causing them to both be fall apart tender, but with a nice char/browning on the outside).

Bacon is also.....strangely, hard for alot of people. I have had so many people mention how good my bacon is, or how I cook it perfectly every time. Never seemed hard for me, but...again...based on the bacon you often get when you eat out, it seems to be a skill that you can lack.

I consider not cooking bacon correctly a crime against nature and it should be punishable by NO MORE BACON FOR YOU FOREVER!!!

Except I don't eat bacon anymore sigh...so I guess I am punishing myself for making too tasty bacon for along time.

Bacon can be a little challenging if you don't have a big skillet but thats never made it that difficult for me still

Yeah, sorry, no thanks.

You have something like this:

I have actually not tried the dog food, it might be better.

There's no way you can make a better breakfast than a good restaurant.

I feel home cooking is a hit or miss. He problem is that usually people cook things only one way. Knowing how to make eggs only one way, or bacon, or sausage. So, it can be really good or suck. If someone cooks something a different way that you dont like, it can suck. Or if they use a family recipe(or you usually only eat them the way like your family recipe), then they might also suck. Not to say that home cooking is usually bad or anything.

As for local diners, they are usually pretty good. And they normally know how to make things multiple ways, which is good. It still depends on the cook, though. And some local places are really bad, sometimes...

For the restaurants, Im usually fine with them. They are usually cheaper, and they have lots of choices. Usually, it seems like more than local diners. And you can still have stuff cooked to order or whatever... But I just like food as long as it taste good. Or at least like the food...

Also, I believe its suppose to be 6.11.18, just in case anyone was confused...

I feel like they arent actually changing their name, just doing promotional stuff for whatever theyre rolling out
---

I'm kind of wondering if it's just a promotional thing too, but the way they wrote the tweet sort of makes it sound permanent. Also, there is an "ihob" twitter with no information, but it has a verified badge, so it makes me think they've already snatched that handle up. If it was temporary I kind of doubt they'd add a new account.

I very much doubt that the regular workers are going to know what it really is. There's too much of a risk of them leaking it, and it would almost certainly have been leaked by now if the regular workers did know. It's probably only the corporate headquarters people who know what it is so that they can keep it from leaking.

That's pretty lame if true. IIRC they already sell burgers there and nobody cares. Adding a promotion isn't going to make people want to go to IHOP for burgers
