Here’s a little silly fun to get into for your day.
Were you born the same year as your favorite restaurant?
Someone who clearly had some time to kill looked at a bunch of chain restaurants, and what year they opened.
So you can see which restaurant was born the same year you were. Are you a Subway baby (1965)? Starbucks baby (1971)? How bout Five Guys (1986)? Or maybe Chipotle (1993)?
