This man's best friend is an Applebee's restaurant

CHIP Zdarsky really, really loves his local Applebee's restaurant. Seriously, he loves it more than you love your spouse, spouse-to-be or army of cats. Watch the romance unfold.

In his defence, that does look pretty delicious.

The Canadian comic book artist and journalist has been conversing/awkwardly flirting with the restaurant on Facebook for several months, gradually building a bromance. Or a romance. We don't really know what we should call it, to be honest.

There's really nothing more to be said. You can read the highlights from Chip's series of conversations with the Applebee's restaurant below. Enjoy!

It was the beginning of a beautiful romance.

Then things got a little more personal.

Chip was a sucker for the restaurant's shameless flattery.

Sorry Chip, did you say something? We were too busy salivating over the chicken to take any notice.

Eager to show off his wit, Chip threw in a gratuitous reference to the infamous "crack-smoking" mayor, Rob Ford.

When Chip and Applebee's started to dress each other, it was only a matter of time before they started to undress each other.

Applebee's still respected Chip enough to give him his own space.

Then Michael Whatshisface here decided to become a third wheel.

Oh right, Deborah. Forgot about her for a while. We're sure Chip will be faithful in the long run.

Awww.
