DINING OUT GUILT FREE ENTREE

When dining out, it would help your diet to go to a place where they know you or dine in  a small cafe where it would be easier for the cook to accommodate slight alterations to your order. I once went to a Chinese restaurant -Henry's Garden, after a hard day's work and requested them to make me an egg drop soup which was not in the menu that required ground beef, shitake mushroom egg drop and no starch thickener and they happily obliged. Well I've been there many times before with my employees. Make sure that the place is friendly enough to accommodate your request!! Or you can tell them you're allergic to starch or carbs and you will most likely convulse if you had that in your food. I'm sure they will gladly accommodate you.

Do your research, check out their menu online and call them to ask if they would be flexible enough to your allergic concerns ! WINK WINK .

I go to my fave Enoteca -Donato Enoteca in Redwood City.  their menu offers a few hi pro yumminess I can indulge in. They also have a 'Pico Salad" which is mix greens with grilled prawns and squid. yummm.

In and Out Burger, if you go to their website ( click the link) they do have a "secret menu" not listed on on site. One of them is " protein wrap and you can order your all burger that way be it a single burger or double double with everything on it except for the buns!! yummm


Here are a few dishes I indulged in while dining out!!;
