  • Yummy!! I will have to make this!! Thanks for posting!!
  • Ugh!! yep!! I know the type of place you are talking about. Everything should be "made to order" so, you can ask for a grilled fish, chicken breast or filet. No oil, no sauce. Ask for your vegtables to be sauteed in a little bit of olive oil. Don't eat the starch unless you can figure out what is in it....like a baked…
