However, in spite of these issues, some once-struggling restaurants are coming back from near extinction - and, often, changing how their businesses are run in the process. We're going to take a closer look at several different chains that, until recently, were not doing well but have managed to pull back from the brink (at least for now). It's not clear what the future holds for your favorite chain restaurants, but for the time being, it looks like these spots are making a comeback.

My house used to have Thai Tuesday. We'd order takeout from our favorite local spot, happily trading time at the stove and a sink full of dishes for curries and noodles that arrived hot and delicious. At a little more than $10 a plate, it felt like a splurge but a manageable one. An easy-to-rationalize indulgence on a random weeknight when everyone was tired and hungry, and no one wanted to talk about quinoa.
