Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises

Through a (dumb) train of thought, I thought it’d be funny to type various words/phrases into Google Maps (ie home, holy grail, your mom) and see where they are. “You” was funny, because I discovered Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises, Inc.  It’s painfully weird and cute creepy, but props for catching my eye.

There are more than 80 restaurants owned by LEYE, many of which have subpar reviews, but there must be something to them because they’ve been around since Richard Melman came up with the conglomerate’s (continually growing) idea in 1970. LEYE also provides consulting, which I hope is less gaudy and more professional than their consulting website.

Anyway Richard, I’ll try to visit one of your restaurants some time and see this glorious Lettuce empire for myself. You can thank Google Maps.
