I'm going to an italian restaurant tonight?

Question

I'm going to an italian restaurant and because I am watching my weight, I was wondering if any of you had suggestions of what to order?

Answer 1

pasta

Answer 2

Antipasto - it's the Italian equivalent of hors d'œuvre, meaning “before the meal” (anti = before, pasto = meal). In Italian cuisine, this typically consists of savory cold foods such as cheeses and raw or marinated vegetables, as well as cold cuts and cured meats such as prosciutto. It will be mostly salad type items and you can pick. Tell your waiter you are having it as your main course.

Answer 3

Water, tablespoon of pepper and a sugar packet would be the best thing to eat.

Italian = carbs.

Look for something that involves vegetables, olive oil, grilled fish, etc.

Answer 4

Salad.

Answer 5

Dont order pasta. Choose light stuff like Salads. Italian Salads are usually very good. Or if you want any kind of fish without toppings of any kind. Just a word of advise - Try NOT to mix proteins with pastas (which usually italians usually do) because that is what really gains you weight. Hope that helps. Bon Appét*t!

Answer 6

have a pasta dish, one that is just tomato based, and not the creamy ones if you like spicy food have a penne piccanti it is gorgeous and low in fat and calories. If you are going to have a starter ask for a green salad with no oil.As for dessert.. well....no comment!! LoL

Answer 7

Answer 8

Anything, enjoy yourself. One night off will do you good.
