Applebee’s, the American company that develops, franchises, and operates the Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill + Bar restaurant chain, launches its first metaverse meal, in collaboration with artist Amber Vittoria.
The NFT artwork entitled “Sharing Dreams” evokes Amber’s memory of frequenting Applebee’s with her friends and sharing dreams while eating meals together.
