    Broth-based soup & half a roast beef or turkey sandwich

    Burger with some lettuce & tomato slices, or a side salad ..... ditch the roll & potato

    Scrambled eggs with veggies, no toast or potato

    Smallest portion steak, double up on veggies, no starch

    And don't fret ..... enjoy the time with your boss & coworkers ..... (and eat a light dinner & exercise later !)

    LOL! You've obviously never seen a greasy spoon cafe! It's a UK term for a truck stop, so none of the above will be available (except the steak) unless it's a very unusual one. You can have any variation on fries, bread, eggs, sausage, burger, bacon, tomatoes, mushrooms, beans, possibly other things - as long as it's ALL fried. Hence the name "greasy spoon".

    Yikes, how depressing ROFL ..... well, best of luck anyway !
