Went to a new restaurant a few weeks ago.
It occurred to us later...too late that everybody there was filling up on bottles of wine, carbie appetizers, pasta, pizza crusts and bread baskets.
We only wanted a couple of entrees.
The lamp chops were so thin I couldn't believe my eyes, DH salmon was a child size portion and both entrees with a big mound of cold starchy couscous and 4 rawish green beans each and two watery side salads that were extra and came without dressing so we had to flag down someone for some dressing..
I don't want to say what the bill was but I know I only had about 3oz of meat on those chops, don't eat couscous-good or bad and raw green beans...UH NO.
We both left hungry and went to the store to pick up some deli soup.
We discussed that all of those eating there were filling up on nothing but carbs.....
