IHOP, Denny's, Village Inn etc are all clones.
My understanding is that the firm claimed to have gotten their name from the first names of the original two partners in the chain, SAM and BOb. As many of you might remember, there was a big flap, several years ago, from complaints that the Sambo name was racist. IIRC, the restaurants even had Little Black Sambo imagery displayed around the walls. The successor to the chain is BAKER'S SQUARE.
Thanx, Ray
