Any articles or essays, preferably by food critics or chefs, that discuss restaraunts like Applebese's and TGI Friday as being signifincantly worse than other restaurants?

Not asking for the opinions of other Flutherers. Just want to know if anyone has read anything about why Applebee’s (and all of the other chain restaurants like it) sucks.

Once again. Not asking for your opinion. I’m asking for articles.
