What mainland chains would you guys suggest me to go to? One of my goals in my life is to try Trader Joe's and In and Out Burgers at least once. I would also like to try Chick-fil-A, since I always see reviews about it on grubgrade.com. I've tried the deep dish pizza and the White Castle burgers in Chicago. People from the mainland suggested that I try Mellow Mushroom. Mahalo!

Both Trader Joe's and In and Out Burger are GREAT!

You might also try Olive Garden

Fast Food/Restaurants (that you can't find in Hawaii):
Del Taco (beats Taco Bell hands down)
In & Out (for basic burgers. get the 2x2 if you can)
Sonics (just for that service to your car experience)
El Pollo Loco (for the best grilled Chicken)
Chick Fil A (just don't try finding one on Sunday)
Olive Garden (only if you take Advantage of their Soup and Salad combos)



Shopping:
Trader Joes
Fresh & Easy
Vons or Ralphs (Vons is the same company as Safeway)

I don't plan on traveling anytime soon, but I'd love to keep what mainland chains I'd like to visit in mind for my next mainland visit!

Wow, I never heard of half of these places. I heard Sonics has super good milkshakes.
