I worked at Red Lobster in college and believe me, the endless shrimp was too much. It made us servers and the kitchen staff have three times as much work added onto what was already hectic.
@@lastfrontierworship6367 just about. They would pay around $16 and get as much shrimp as they could get. Some folks somehow managed to get through over 30 plates of shrimp dishes. Pretty sure it's a large part to why Red Lobster is shutting down just about everywhere.
@@emilyivey93 I think there's a Company Man video explaining the whole thing, and you are right. The CEO who spearheaded that promotion caused the company to lose millions upon millions of dollars and they never truly recovered.
Filing bankruptcy is not the same thing as "closing". It basically just clears/reduces their debt. Companies file for bankruptcy all the time, downsize temporarily, rebrand, and then return as usual.
I remember seeing an old pop sugar video’s comment where a red lobster employee said that they just added shredded cheddar and old bay to nesquick biscuit dough, and brushed the shrimp scampi sauce on them afterwards!
What!!! I feel like that makes so much sense haha the biscuit dough texture reminded me spot of pancake batter if you reduce the liquid. I need to test this theory.
The thing about Red Lobster is they may have filed for bankruptcy but they're not gone. I still have one open near me and I get emails all the time saying hey we're still here, and we have this special going on. So they may be down but they're not out yet
Good to know! And I'm wishing them all the best to survive the struggle! I'm german. So I've only been there once. But I really liked it. Restaurant prices in the US have gone up very much in the US, recently. More than here in Germany. (Example: we where out for dinner, when my mom turned 90, last month. It was 130€ for the 4 of us. Including drinks. My brother said that lately they where likely to pay some 80 to 90$ for 2, over in KS.) A favourite place to go for me was (and I hope they are still around) "The Cow" in Edmond, OK. Amazing burgers and the best onion rings, ever!
0:33 I used to work at the wrong end of a phone line doing directory assistance at a contractor. The ways people would mangle "Buca di Beppo" was a source of infinite amusement for me.
The one I really miss is Sweet Tomatoes/Souplantation. My bestie (soon to be sister in law! Yay!) and I used to go there like every weekend with our Starbucks tips and go absolutely ham on salad and soup.
I worked for Boston Market for years in the 2010's. Costco chickens are decent, but Boston Market's were more flavorful. Handling the chicken wasn't my department, but they were brined in apple cider vinegar, I know that much. Costco's chickens are inordinately huge BTW, I remember people would see the half chicken meal and they'd get mad at us cause they were expecting a Costco sized chicken. That "added" in "No added steroids or hormones" has me suspicious, cause those things are definitely juiced somehow.
About 30 years ago, my ex-wife and I used to eat at Red Lobster all the time. We thought the secret ingredient in their biscuits was Bisquick baking mix. (The chain was originally owned by General Mills .)
If you're using the box mix of cheddar bay biscuits you should use 3x the cheese, and substitute buttermilk instead of water. Tastes exactly the same as in the restaurant.
You can dupe the cheddar bay biscuits by making Bisquick drop biscuits and adding the Old Bay and shredded cheese, then brushing with garlic herb butter. I still have a Buca location and several Red Lobsters in my area. I’ve never heard of the salad place, but I do miss Boston Market. I don’t have a Costco membership, so I can’t speak to their rotisserie chicken.
Oh mannn, Buca Di Beppo took me back 😂 we went for my friend's 16th birthday party and there was a waiter there who was SO cute (who didn't serve us) and we talked about him the whole time. Then he let us take a picture with him as we were leaving 😅
There’s still a Boston market and red lobster in my area, we have sesame place here in Langhorne Pennsylvania so all the restaurants do pretty well here.
We have a Bucca in my town in SoCal. I can't believe people still eat there.We had a rubio's and a Boston Market too. We also have Red Lobster( Still open) LOL. Home of Magic Mountain and chain restaurants.
I ate at Bucco De Beppu only once and it was an extra-large gathering of family of about a dozen people. Everything about the food was fantastic. We had individual orders and several group dishes, which we all had portions of each was fantastic and memorable. They closed our only Bucco De Beppu operation, but their dishes are fantastic. One of the dishes that I loved was their Lemon Chicken. I wish I had gone more, but that memory of that Lemon Chicken will always remain.
Not bankrupt but not sure if it's the same with the current McDonalds Pizza compared to the 1990s version. Did found why the 90s version was very tasteful since it uses the same buttered crust like Lou Malnati’s Pizzeria as well as the same TurboChef ovens used by Subway. Actually a lot of those 1990s TurboChef overs end up being bought by Subway after McDonalds discontinued their McPizza. There's a TH-cam instruction video for the buttered crust pizza that got taken down(trade secrets) but it's just butter and grated parmesan cheese was put on the pan before the deep dish dough was placed in it. As for Red Lobster's Cheddar Bay Biscuits, I was told by one of the cooking staff is that having a convection/steam oven makes a big difference in making the biscuits moist&fluffy compared to the common dry heat baking oven at home. Something like the Dreo ChefMaker Combi Fryer would be ideal for home use to make Red Lobster's biscuits. Also for a quick Shrimp scampi hack, i usually use greek salad dressing(without the feta&bacon) and added butter to bake it.
Red Lobster isn’t going out of business they are just downsizing in less profitable areas and reconstructing their menu, they just add an article on how they sales have gone up. I’m from NYC ours I always busy AF
The frozen red lobster cheddar bay biscuits are so much better than their flour box version you have to make. You should try them! My family bought some & baked them but idk where they got them from. They come already made & I feel like they are the closest to the real thing. If not better bc/ red lobster has been slacking w\ their biscuits even from the restaurant.
We still have Buca, Red Lobster, and Boston Market over in FL. We don’t have as many as we used to, but they are still pretty easy to find. Ok- do this again but do Sweet Tomatoes (those ALL closed, although I think a few reopened recently somewhere in the country) and Fuddruckers (they still have a few left, but they are pretty hard to find).
Omg I though if I'd ever get a chance to go visit USA I'd love to eat in some Red Lobster... what am I gonna do now ? 😩 Great video Dzung, fish taco and fluffy biscuits look very tasty !
The meat prices is America are ridiculous. In Austria zwei pices of filet chicken cost around 7-8€, which I actually find to be a fair price when you think about the animal behind the product
And I do miss Boston market one of my favorite restaurant. They always had the best cream of spinach like my go to was actually their dinner plate. You get a rotisserie chicken too sad and you’re good for the whole day.
Hey love your videos btw your chocolate chip cookie recipe has been a MASSIVE hit with friends family and coworkers I’ve done a few tweaks and I’ll be honest the last batch I made I’m not sure I’ll be able to remake it
Red Lobster isn't completely out of business. There's still one here at least. I considered ordering it on Door Dash yesterday but got some chicken instead.
Costco chicken convert here. I also used to get rotisserie chicken from Sam's Club too, but Costco was opened close to where my mom lives (and where I visit to help her out when not doing shift work at a hospital near Atlanta)😂
You can buy a box mix. But biscuits are super easy. I make a grain free version. There's a bit of garlic powder in the biscuit, and cheese, and on top after baked, melted garlic butter and parsley added.
When people asked for it in the Restaurant, we were told to just tell them to use Bisquick mix, add cheddar cheese, after baking brush with a garlic butter sauce.
If anyone could find the recipe for Crispers Thai chicken flatbread I would forever be thankful. I have search high and low. I loved it but I can't find a recipe to reproduce it at home.
lmfao came here for this, i know that was just editing jazz and probably not real screen recording but im picturing the poor soon to be unemployed social media employee getting that dm and being even more depressed
I worked at Boston Market and that made me never want to eat there again. The chicken is the one thing made fresh but they keep a giant bucket of grease in the back from the chicken and it smells so bad
Red lobster isn’t completely gone. They filed ch 11. The one in my area is still open. Also, you left out that private equity did what private equity does. It’s sucks the life aka money out of a business and then leaves it on life support.
Man, I wish you were really doing the Boston market chicken. I worked there and know the recipe and I was curious to see if you had the actual recipe or not. I actually use it on my Thanksgiving turkey from time to time. Spoiler alert it was the brine not the rotisserie anybody can make a rotisserie chicken. You gotta know what to put in the brine.
Lol girl, you dm’d Boston Market instead of Red Lobster!! But those cheddar bay biscuits did look bomb!! I gotta try your recipe!
What!!!! Omgggg haha no wonder nobody replied 😅😅

I haven't had a Boston Market near me for ages. But they had some of the best roast chicken I had ever had.
I wanna know what Boston Market put on their roasted chickens. It wasn't just a roasted chicken.
About 30 years ago, my ex-wife and I used to eat at Red Lobster all the time. We thought the secret ingredient in their biscuits was Bisquick baking mix. (The chain was originally owned by General Mills .)

15:41 did you just send a DM to Boston Market for the Red Lobster recipe ? 😂😂😂😂 oh well 😂😂
We still have a Buca di Beppo here. It’s OK, but it’s nothing to write home about.
Sometimes there's reason they're bankrupt

Sir Yacht made it into the video! 13:08 😂
bucca di Beppo was sooo delicious! first time I ever had homemade more authentic Caesar salad. it was revolutionary to my 12 year old self back then.
When Honeysuckle referred to "Buca di Beppo" as a restaurant from her childhood, I suddenly felt very old.
We still have Rubios Boston Market and Red Lobster near me
How about Fuddruckers & TGI Fridays!?
We have a Bucca in my town in SoCal. I can't believe people still eat there.We had a rubio's and a Boston Market too. We also have Red Lobster( Still open) LOL. Home of Magic Mountain and chain restaurants.

That should be a cookbook if no one has done it yet. Recipes from past on restaurants. Probably be worth it to have a book pretty much for each one.

Whenever I make Red Lobster’s boxed biscuits they always come out right. Never flat
Definitely going to save this video to make some of these. Those biscuits are my absolute favorite
I love that you recognized Buca di beppo!!! Thats my neck of the woods! Had my 40th there!!
The funny thing Olive Garden Ashley owned red lobster was actually on by the same company
Yes, Olive Garden and Red Lobster were both owned by Darden, the actual Corporation, until a few years ago, when Darden dropped Red Lobster.
Omg I though if I'd ever get a chance to go visit USA I'd love to eat in some Red Lobster... what am I gonna do now ? 😩 Great video Dzung, fish taco and fluffy biscuits look very tasty !
It sounds like they’re still hanging in there and still have some stores around!
Come to Macon, Ga. We still have our Red Lobster up and running. And I'm sure it's up in other places in Georgia also.
Bucca di beppo is still in Columbus, OH and is my FAV italian place ❤
Where did you get the salt and pepper raccon!? They're my fav animals and I collect them! I'd love one for my kitchen! Love your channel btw!!!
Early love your videos❤❤❤
I tried Red Lobster Biscuits from the box, but I made them in a cupcake baking pan and they turned out soooo good
The meat prices is America are ridiculous. In Austria zwei pices of filet chicken cost around 7-8€, which I actually find to be a fair price when you think about the animal behind the product
The size of the meatballs is a compromise. Big meatballs are easier to do in quantities, small meatballs gets more maillard browning.
i'm a big fan of the tender greens tomato soup and mint lemonade !
And I do miss Boston market one of my favorite restaurant. They always had the best cream of spinach like my go to was actually their dinner plate. You get a rotisserie chicken too sad and you’re good for the whole day.
Their creamed spinach was the absolute best!! I want THAT recipe!
My parents loved Boston Market. I thought it was okay but yeah it got to a point where the quality just went down.
I am pretty sure we have Boston Market and Red Lobster here in Canada.
in the grain free dupes of the Red Lobster Biscuits, there is no Old Bay. I think it's just a nod to being sea food
I live in Georgia and our Red Lobster is still up and running. We can go eat there at any time. I'm sorry to hear they've closed where you live.
garlic salt and grated cheddar is the secret to the Bay Biscuits
Hey love your videos btw your chocolate chip cookie recipe has been a MASSIVE hit with friends family and coworkers I’ve done a few tweaks and I’ll be honest the last batch I made I’m not sure I’ll be able to remake it
WOW this look sooo good wanna eat through the screen
Red Lobster isn't completely out of business. There's still one here at least. I considered ordering it on Door Dash yesterday but got some chicken instead.
Thankyou for making my Saturday afternoon 😊
For the first restaurant , I get the concept - 1large portion can be split between a family …sucks that they went out of business.
My local Buca di Beppo closed in 2017 & we still have Red Lobster.
Costco chicken convert here. I also used to get rotisserie chicken from Sam's Club too, but Costco was opened close to where my mom lives (and where I visit to help her out when not doing shift work at a hospital near Atlanta)😂
I suspect Goop did not use MSG in their rub
Chipotle’s food has such a strange taste that I can’t eat it. I can’t especially stand the smell of their food.
PLEASE SHARE THAT Red Lobster recipe when they send it! 😂

$5 chicken? That's a pretty sweet deal! Love the video!
I live in Alberta, Canada. We still have an open Red Lobster lol.
Any chance you tried Chi-Chi's twice grilled barbeque burrito?
RIP to whomever bites into those giant pieces of garlic.
I bet boston market was so confused when they opened that message! 😂😂
The Walmart $5 chicken is superior to all the $5 chickens imo
Hi! I’d like to know where/brand of the small pink pot with cross cross handle on top? It’s so cute!!
It’s a Dansk
Red Lobster biscuits are supposed to be more liquid, they are drop biscuits, you’re supposed to drop them with a spoon.
What dam episode!!!!!! Ur so smart with channel
By the gods I used to love Rubios and I miss it. Not the fish. Burrito Especial No Meat with their Roasted Smoky Chipotle Lime Salsa. So good.

Omgggg 😳😳😳 so many questions!! What did they save it for?!?
@@honeysuckle I have no idea? Maybe it was to dispose of it more easily once it's solid than just pouring it down the drain and destroying the pipes
Ooo, this is a great idea. RIP these restaurants 😔
a former manager i worked with still has all the receipes from steak N ale
red lobster uses bisquick for instead of flour

I love Rubios love the salsa verde tacos and their Rice
bro dm'd Boston Market instead of Red Lobster 💀
Can you please put timestamps on your video for each recipe?
Hi, I'm just curious to know what you do with all this leftover food from your videos? ❤
We eat them! I film over 3-4 days even tho it looks like it’s one day 😄
Red lobster is out of bankruptcies
not putting olive oil in tomato sauce should be criminal
I miss Kenny Rogers Roasters Dill Pasta Salad
