Having lived in Sunnyvale for a bunch of years, this is just not true. Heck, there’s more than one Michelin starred restaurant with tasting menus well above $100 a head in the South Bay (Manresa, Baume, and Chez TJ).

How is it "just not true"? There are literally a couple Chili's (and plenty of TGIF's and other similar places) within a couple miles of the house in question. The fact that there are _also_ some real nice places doesn't change that (also, my wife and I literally fell asleep while eating at Chez TJ. One of my worst meals ever. Baumé is superb, however.)

The Bay Area isn't uniquely bad. It just isn't uniquely great either. It's a nice place to live. So are lots of other places. There are some great restaurants. There are some great restaurants in other suburbs, too.

I mean, surely there are shitty chain restaurants even in food meccas like NYC. Maybe I misunderstood what you were trying to say here.
