I was asked if I’d be interested in picking up dinner at a
local restaurant, The Chateau (if you’re unfamiliar it is an Italian restaurant).
I knew what I would have ordered in the past (chicken parm with fried ravioli)
but since I don’t just order impulsively anymore, I pulled up the menu on my
phone. Browsing through it I noticed the restaurant had an “Under 598 calories”
menu option. It intrigued me so I took a peek … and turned out that one dish in
particular really stuck out to me.
Granted, I was in the mood for sirloin so sirloin is what I
ordered. The great part is the menu gave the sirloin weight pre-grilling, which
meant it would seemingly shrink 2-3 ounces on the grill which was exactly the
case. Unfortunately my steak was cooked wrong (I wanted medium-well, I was
served medium & since my order was a to-go order I couldn’t have it cooked
to enjoy at once) so I took 2 bites of my steak and packaged the rest up to
bring home to finish cooking off.
I ordered a side garden salad with Low Fat Zinfandel
Vinaigrette as well as the grilled sirloin steak (8 oz – raw) alongside fresh
grilled vegetables. Screw up aside while cooking – the meal itself was
delicious.
