This section of the Dining Guide is by far the most controversial, and arguably the least useful. Since each restaurant - even if it's a chain - only gets one thread, I've decided to separate restaurants with multiple locations into categories. 

Remember that these are all chains, and the vast majority of great dining experiences will be found at the independently owned restaurants in the Dining Guides from New York City. Still, it would benefit the community for me to (eventually) go in and pick the best 10, 20, 50 of these restaurants, and distribute them into their individual locations, even though that means maintaining two watches. Your suggestions are more than welcome.

Cheers,
Rocks.
