re: Anything cheesier than being out of town on business trip & eating at a chain restaurant?

Sure, but in most decent sized cities there is at least one or two institutions in the industry that have been there for years and have built a reputation for good food. I wasn't ever really looking for a Michelin rated restaurant, just some local flavor.
Not all are located close to where you are. At the end of a long day, it's really ok to get a bite of food somewhere you might feel embarrassed if your peers would see you there.

Don't project. I never said anything about being embarrassed if seen at a chain restaurant. And when I did travel more for work, there absolutely were long days where I hit up a chain close to my hotel for convenience.
I'm a curious person. When I get to a city I've never visited, I want to experience it like a local. I want to go to the popular local places to eat, I want to sit at a dive bar with the regulars. I don't want the only places I visit when I'm there my worksite, my hotel, and the Chili's/Applebee's/Olive Garden. If that makes me elitist or something, so be it.
