   @VeroniqueB99 The story is actually kind of interesting. A guy named Chris started a steakhouse in New Orleans. He eventually sold it to a woman name Ruth. It still was just Chris's Steakhouse then. The place eventually burned down, but the woman had another property by then and she turned that into the 2nd steakhouse, but her agreement with the original owner prevented her from using the same name at other locations. So, they called it Ruth's Chris Steakhouse.

     @VeroniqueB99 She didn't like the name either, but she needed her customer's to understand that they were serving the same steaks, just at a new location, so wanted to preserve some part of the original name so customers would get the idea.

     @Infoseepage @VeroniqueB99 Thanks for the historical context. It still bugs me so, so, so much.
