The End is Nigh
There is a very (VERY) large billboard on the far north end of Rosarito announcing the imminent opening of... Applebee's.

Try near in time for a definition. And it is my understanding that there is a single entity that holds the Applebees' franchises for Mexico. The good
news is that not all franchises translate. Pizza Hut has had difficulty in Mexico. Houlihan's even more so. But even indiginous franchises struggle
depending on location/ region. Grupo Anderson, with the ubiquitous Carlos and Charlies, Senor Frogs, Mama Roma, El Shrimp Bucket, Etc. Have opened and
closed at various sites around the country.

I hear they've been open for a few months. Maybe the sign company just got around to it. You would expect that, right?

Applebee's in Ensenada is always packed...I don't even like Applebee's stateside so I wouldn't dare try it here.
