Swiss Chalet 

A large Canadian casual-dining restaurant chain owned by Recipe Unlimited (formerly Cara Operations Ltd). It serves entry-level western dishes catered to Canadian style food. Quality and taste is sometimes decent, but often times subpar. Makes for an adequate job for a college student.

Comparable to the American restaurant chains Olive Garden and (less so) Applebees.
