    Does the restaurant have a website where they provide nutrition facts? Google the restaurant online and see if it does.

    either try to log the items seperately (be sure to add on calories just for the fact that it is a restaurant, becuase that is how it tends to go!) or pick one of the other restaurant's salads and count that - just go with the higher calorie one - it is better to be a little under on your calories for one day by overestimating than to accidentally overeat by underestimating! (in my opinion :happy: )
  • Ceasar Salad dressing is Killer. I love Cesar Salad but just cant bring myself to waste 260 cals on dressing alone. That includes no veggies bacon or chicken or croutons. Thats for a "pouch" of Renee's Ceasar Salad dressing
