I suspect that it's probably just a list copied
from a Google map or something. (Frankly, I don't
think that Subway is exactly what I'd call a
recommended place to go for a business lunch
either :-> ) I doubt very much that anyone at the
workplace actually thought to review the list.
Just because Hooters is included in a general list
of restaurants within X vicinity of a workplace
doesn't mean that they've endorsed it or are forcing
you to go there.
