    Frankies & Bennys: Barbeque Chicken Pizza



    LOVE that one! Haven't had it in a year or so though... usually have the baked salmon with pesto - no fries or potatoes, salad without dressing instead when we go there now. I really like their spaghetti and meatballs as well but again, don't think I've had that for months and months.

    2) Benny's Bistro - Grilled Bison Tenderloin with Wild Mushroom Risotto
    3) Lucca's - Everything on the menu...!! LOL

    it's hard to eat out when you are a dieting diabetic. I guess I'd say sushi my favorite is spicy tuna roll, taco's soft chicken or crunchy beef from taco mayo, and thirds would be Thia chopped chicken salad from panera.

    Seared Sea Scallops - We just can't get dry scallops from grocery stores in our area - they're all frozen or sold in liquor. A lot of people don't realize there's a difference - but it's a HUGE difference in taste. Fortunately, restaurants *can* get dry scallops, and they sear up so much better. Scallops out are almost always better than scallops at home.

    Lobster - I'm a lobster fanatic, and if the lobster is fresh, Maine lobster - I cannot say no.

    Chicken Marsala - I love the taste of cream, marsala and mushrooms together.

    Okay, this thread is not good for any of us, but we all have a list of things we might rather be eating while we are staring at our bowl of chunk light tuna at lunch time. So here are a few of mine.


    1. Thick grilled cheeseburger with caramelized onions and ketchup (with steak fries of course - and more ketchup)

    2. Korean bulgogi with veggies and rice

    3. Muffaletta sandwich with extra olives
