Bob and I went to Cracker Barrel a few nights ago for dinner. It was my first time and I admit to not entirely understanding their business model. There was furniture for sale out front, and to get into the restaurant you have to walk through the Cracker Barrel store. I imagine it used to be styled more as a "general store", but now amid the old-fashioned sodas and candies sit modern children's toys, clothing, cat toys, and other seemingly random trinkets. Once seated though, our waitress was nice and the food thoroughly southern, plentiful, and yummy.
We felt a little out of place, besides a few grandchildren we were the youngest diners there; the median age was around 65. We played a little game while we waited for our order and shared a sampling of their more popular dishes. All in all it was a fun visit.
