I haven't been able to figure out what this restaurant, built in 1993, originally was. It was last Gabriel's Pancake House, but also comes up listed as Los Nopales mexican restaurant and Ugaldes Family Restaurant. Neither of which look like a major chain that would have built the building originally. However, Olive Garden also comes up listed at this address; interior pictures from google also show Gabriel's Pancake House using older rolling chairs like those previously used by Olive Garden. I don't think this was originally an Olive Garden due to the building design being different from other locations I have saw. It is odd to see an Olive Garden that went out of business without relocation.
The corner entrance is probably the best identifying feature since many chains did not build entrances like that. Perhaps this originally was something along the lines of East Side Mario's, Damon's Grill, or Perkins as those are a few chains I can think of that built this type of entrance on some locations.

January 26, 2013 I should have been outside photographing the beautiful snow that fell yesterday, but the sub-freezing temps just convinced me to stay put. I saw this technique called the Harris Shutter effect and had to try it. It's pretty cool.
Here's the tutorial: www.expertphotography.com/how-to-the-harris-shutter-effect/

I have kind of a thing about shutters on houses that are decorative and not functional. As in, get rid of them! Especially plastic ones screwed permanently in place by people who seem to have forgotten that they ever had a function. The distaste can even extend to functional ones that are open just because they resemble fake ones! On the other hand, I find nothing more attractive and historically appropriate looking than to see the original shutters on an old house, closed! Aren't these beautiful?! Reminds me of Old New Orleans or some antebellum plantation house.
I walked all over Beacon Hill in the rain this past week. It really was fun because it wasn't raining too hard. Daffodils were everywhere in the window boxes. I guess every one dressed up their homes for Easter. Since the only gardens are the ones "hidden" in back yards, window boxes are "the thing." These bright and cheery daffodils (even in the rain) are only two of the ones I saw.
