Over the last several months, I have seen any number of stories about the troubles the iconic seafood chain Red Lobster is facing, and it kind of makes me sad.
I have wonderful memories of my family’s trips to Evansville when I was a kid. Sure, that doesn’t sound like much of a big deal now, but when we were kids, my sister and I loved visiting a bigger city. And it’s just about 40 miles away, so our Saturday night “getaways” were borderline frequent.
Troubled Red Lobster Is Still a Personal Nostalgia Hit
One spot we would often visit was the Red Lobster on Bellemeade Avenue, and it’s still there. That was the first Red Lobster I ever visited, so I get a little nostalgic whenever I pass it today. (Of course, in context, an empty parking lot isn’t exactly the best of optics, but that is not the Indiana location currently the chopping block.)
