Eating Out

These days eating out has become a nightmare the food just gets more and more disgusting. Yes we are all health conscious individuals on this forum and to make most of your meals is the only way to keep to a decent diet but jeez these days everything in these restaurants is drained in oil and all sorts of shit. There are a few awesome steak houses in the sandton area that make great food which is a blessing. I have noticed lately that people are getting fatter and its no wonder nobody gives a shit what they put into their mouth anymore. If you guys have names of places you eat out at that cater to our lifestyles please post it here because I am sure I am not the only one who has a major issue with this. We all have our social obligations and at times its difficult to find decent places to eat at in order to keep everyone happy. Please post them so we can all benefit from this thanks guys.

Hey Chemical G,

YOU right most places are purely concerned with the taste factor and not the nutritional value of THE food. Sad but true, when i eat out i am always very specific with regards to the way in which the kitchen prepares my food and I tell them plainly that if they dont get it right i will not pay for my food, especially if i am dieting, one time in 2006 i was dieting for nationals and decided to go for a breakfast with friends at the M**g AND B*** , what a disaster, i told them one yolk, they put them all in, i said no butter , they used loads of butter thats all i could taste, shit i was pissed and running tren too!LOL

Anyway most times they get it reasonably right,
check out NANDOS- eat strips and rice, order extra strips and get them to chop pineapple in it, i could live on that.
Steers do flamed chick breast tikka, order a salad in place of chips.
KFC -Order strips and extra strips grilled and get them in a wrap plain.
Global wraps- down here in durbs i think all the stores are closed but i know up in gauteng thay are still running, order their thai peanut wrap with extra chicken and not too much sauce.

These are all takeaways i know but with the restaurants i just tell them and give them the evil stare.

Hope this helps some guys!

Be firm most places wanna make you a happy customer

Adega's has some good dishes to. The slimmers choice fish with olive oil. And Chicken with veggies.
Beside that , I harderly eat out.

If I cant find anything on the menu. I order the steak or chicken with veggies.

well there is Kuawai in sandton ....

Nando's has a vitality meal, not bad either

Otherwise i prefer a proper steakhouse ... medium rare steak with some steamed or boiled veggies (not much chance of stuffing that up)

But ill give it a think ... there is a few places around sandton/rosebank just can put my head straight now

Fsh in rosebank
