    We laugh at the unlimited shrimp putting them under but it's another case of a capital firm coming in, wringing every possible dollar out of it, and destroying a company

      They were already failing when they were sold to the capital firm.

        Has anyone's Red Lobster consumption gone up since childhood? I remember my parents taking me there, then several decades of it never occurring to me that that's a place where I could spend my own money, and then this. I guess they wanted me to take the place of my parents and bring a nuclear family there a couple times a year. Sorry!

          I have never made the active choice to go to Red Lobster
