You're right there are some recent incarnations, I was just at one yesterday! We went there to celebrate after my daughter's piano recital. The one we went to was fairly new, located in Brea. The placed was packed. It's been many years since I have been to one, but it was basically the same. There were at least four Zoo's delivered while we were there. As John-O was asking, yes, it's the Zoo that is carried out by two people amidst much loud fanfare with drums and sirens. Don't go here if you have a hangover! Another standard is still in place, people that eat pig troughs are required to stand up and recite an "I'm a Piggy" speech before receiving a button that says "I made a pig of myself at Farrells". Oh, and the waitresses are still wearing garters too:

A few months ago I was under the impression that there was only one Farrells left, in San Diego. Now I've learned that the original owner of the chain, Bob Farrell is involved again and the chain is making a comeback.
