Kind Acts, Good Tastes at Red Robin

Red-Robin-logo.jpg
Let's get this out of the way, before the e-mails start rolling in from corporate: I'm aware that Red Robin is not a quick-serve chain. It's more like casual dining. But the company does something I'm hoping more chains, including quick-serves and even general retail chains, will emulate.

Go read here about Red Robin's Unbridled Acts of Kindness program. But make sure you have fifteen minutes to spend reading because you'll get caught up in the mini-profiles of kind gestures performed by Red Robin employees, with the encouragement and full backing of their managers. And you'll leave the page feeling better about our society.

Props to Red Robin. And props to nine-year-old Adrianna Montgomery, pictured left, who recently won a national contest to create Red Robin's newest burger.

I'm looking forward to trying her recipe for a Spicy Asian Burger.

Very cool ... I never even knew that this chain existed ... and there's a location about 30 minutes from our house. And, since I am definitely a fan of burgers ... this will be on the list for the next time we go out ...


When you go, let us all know how it is. I haven't eaten there yet...though that Spicy Asian burger might be the thing that brings me in. (Red Robin just arrived in our area last year.)

We love Red Robin, and this is great news! Now, if only they'd get rid of the trans fats in their fries...
