We went grocery shopping yesterday morning at 10:00. Parking lots were crowded at Walmart, Kroger, and Sam's Club.
About 12:30 we decided to get lunch, went to Longhorn Steak House. The parking lot was quite full. At 12:30 on a Tuesday.
No wait for a table. I counted about 8 empty tables. Seven after we were seated. 3/4 of the tables were occupied. On a Tuesday after prime lunch time.
Last time I was in that same Longhorn was 2024, also slightly after noon. Three table were occupied. The whole place looked like a ghost town. There was more staff than customers.
