  • Dead Lobster - Popular Chain Teeters On Bankruptcy

    . . .

    Apparently 48 outlets across the USA got the word
    just today - they're done. No real warnings.

    Red Lobster has always been fairly popular, it's
    rare to see one with anything but a full parking
    lot. The food is 'decent', sometimes 'good' - fair
    value for the money.

    SO ... I'd say some IDIOTS got hired at the home
    office and ran the biz into the dirt. Not the
    first time we've seen that. Some visionary builds
    up the empire from nothing - then the kids or
    grand-kids or brain-dead execs TRASH IT ALL.
