restaurant calories don't usually surprise me, but...

I have to say, I am surprised at the cal count in the Olive Garden Zeppoli dessert - (they're sort of like donuts)

http://www.olivegarden.com/menus/details/menu_item.asp?menu_item_id=7246&secname=dessert

over 1100!

I've never had them, and now I know I never will! (unless a whole table splits a plate and I eat one.)

    That's actually not terribly surprising for a dessert.

    Actually, nothing at Chili's surprises me. Everything is well over 1000 cals.

    I guess these surprised me compared to the rest of OG's desserts. I would think the giant triple chocolate mouse cake would have had more. Especially since these are really only the amt of food in about 2 donuts from the bakery, or about "only" 600-700 cals there.
