1. New Yorkers (at least those in the city and the close-in suburbs) view chain restaurants as being bland and square."

2. With so many outstanding independent restaurants (both low-cost & expensive), what's the point of going to the chains?

BTW: I always have a problem in KC, as my clients insist on barbecue all the time (not my thing).
