I also opted for the "Cham-puh-puhs" pronunciation. It doesn't help that their food is lousy and the service is usually mediocre if not outright hostile. Meh. I'll head over to the Clyde's at Reston Town Center instead, even though the booths are all ripped and everybody seems to ignore the revolving door, instead opting to hold the handicapped-access door open for ten minutes at a time while their stupid friends have conversations and let in all the cold winter air. Not that this happened. At least not every time I ate there. Sometimes it was warm outside. I used to work in one of the buildings at Plaza America next to the Reston location.

"Eat good?" Makes my skin crawl. I can’t deal with the extra “P,” and I also can’t deal with Chicken Out’s poor grammar. “Eat good?”

I had been calling them "Cham-puh-puhs" but maybe I'll just call them "Chams." Make up for the extra P use by everyone else. I can see posting this was a mistake; looking at that picture annoys me.
