It happened. We ate at the place with the Americans making the Italian food.
Somehow I will lose weight on this diet of eating there multiple times a week. What is the science behind this? I am no scientist, nor do I claim to be. I think there’s something there about reducing calories. Which basically means I have to only eat Olive Garden and then like celery and stuff.
We’ll see how that goes.
Anyway, review and ratings for Day 1:
I ate salad instead of soup. No real soup interest today. Maybe when it cools off. No croutons, cheese, or dressing, as I was sharing with my wife and she is perfect etc.
My first entree was:
Fettuccine
Artichoke sauce (fancy)
Fried shrimp (nice and fried)
Second, unfinished, was
Corkscrews (Italian word)
Mushroom sauce (not mushroom left at this point)
Fried chicken (yes, I’m six)
Breadstick count: 4
Weight: 166
All was delightful.
No way am I losing weight on this diet! It’s gonna be a great year!
I’m far from perfect as I ate 3 breadsticks!
Hell yeah!
Can you do a cost breakdown as you go too? Also, was the service adequate and if so what % did you tip?
Yeah, I’ll add up costs as we get along further. The bill came to $30 before the cards canceled it, so we tipped $5. That’s likely to be our going tip rate. Service was solid–the guy remembered Chrissi and James from last year, lol.
