| I have grown adept at (1) ordering the fish tacos without rice and simply not eating the tortillas (discovered the hard way that eatin the tortillas could take my blood sugar up 50 points in an hour), (2) ordering a carne asada salad in a fried flour tortilla bowl and not eating the bowl, (3) ordering fajitas (grilled chicken/shrimp/beef and veggies) and not eating the tortillas), and (4) ordering a burger and not eating the bun. At one catered dinner meeting I attended where I had ordered the veggie plate (you don't know until it's served what you'll get), I cut the ravioli open and ate the fillings.
We went to Outback the other night, where I ordered a filet mignon "Griller" plate. I gave the grilled pineapple to my son. The grilled veggies had a sugared glaze I had not expected (and would ask them not to do next time), but I ate them anyways, and four forkfuls of the whole grain and wild rice. No spike.
Favorite restaurants are ones that serve breakfast all day: I can order an omelette. |
