traveling
I pulled into a hotel once after a full day of driving and decided to treat myself to something nice to make the crap day a little better.

I asked the lady behind the desk "Where is absolutely the nicest place to eat around here? The absolute best - I'm willing to drive a bit more for a nice dinner right now."

She thought about it for a while and then replied, "Denny's is right down the street."

"No, no, Money is no object! and I'll drive an hour more if I have to, Where do people go for a special event or a real treat - where would you go if you could go anywhere?"

She thought about it, and I appreciated that she took me seriously and invested her time on the matter.

"Denny's"

"..."

"It's really good. My parents went there on their anniversary."

what could I say to that?

For the record, they got our order wrong, but it was pretty good, as fast food breakfasts go. But it was just a Denny's
