Denny's = Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Racist or not racist? Who the hell cares, the product is awful so I'm not going to indulge regardless.

It's been 8 pages, so there's bound to be a repeat, but I'll give it a shot:
Wok n' Roll

I'm going to say Dagwood's = Operation Ivy

While they clearly lack most of the 1950's douchery, Operation Ivy is very much like the typical Dagwood sandwich: a lot of people's praise and esteems (?) of crucial-ness planted between two flavorless slabs of whitebread.

Since garble has failed to provide another restaurant franchise for your review and comment, I will offer:

The Franchise: Buffalo Wild Wings (aka "bw3")

Please note that "bw3" is "a fun, edgy, high-energy and easygoing restaurant — much like the personality of our customers."

The Establishment: Wok n' Roll

Since Wok n' Roll evokes a nation (asia), is self referential (their food most likely comes out of a wok), purports to rock and or cause excitement(hence 'Roll'), and is tongue in cheek (here "Wok" replaces "Rock") thus substituting irony for authenticity, the apropiate band is Eagles of Death Metal:
because said band evokes a nation (Eagle = America), refers to their own sound (music probably is heavy metal), promises to rock in the most ostensible & extreme way (death metal), and finally name is ironic/tongue in cheek because no authentic death metal band would carry such a name.
Also both organizations can be properly analyzed without ever having experienced them directly; viewer/eater must merely experience a more bona fide, earnest version of the genre: see China City or Iron Maiden.

Next: TCBY (note: oftentimes next to Subway)

Limp Bizkit. Anything with retarded spelling will always be processed...and there will be diarrhea involved.

Steak and Shake


No, Limp Bizkit is not Chick Fil A b/c Chick Fil' A is delicious; the finest alternative to our burger-centric society. So the finest alternative rock band applies here: Nirvana. Chick Fil' A didn't invent the chicken, just the chicken sandwich; likewise Nirvana didn't invent rock music, just alternative (for all practical purposes).

Plus Kurt Cobain probably didn't do shit on Sundays either (the place is fucking closed then)
