Ok, so me and my buddies typically go out on the weekends to chain restaurants, at least once. In my town, we have Chili's, TGI-Friday's, Applebee's, and Ruby Tuesday. They all have pretty good food and good prices for a college guy. However, now that I've gotten wise and finally gotten serious about lifting and nutrition, I'm worried that I won't be able to eat anything at these places.

So, my question to all you guys who are where I want to be....what can I eat at these places? For those of you who frequent them enough and have fave. dishes, let me know what they are. What's good for a guy like me trying to put on muscle?? Or is there anything? Is dessert out? what about after a meal too? anything would help, cuz i'm probably going to one tonight!

Oh, also, what about asian food??? We have a new chinese restaurant in town as well as a new vietnamese place. What do ya think???? Feedback really appreciated!

THANKS! you know how it is being a newbie!

Agreed with Bigss!

Chicken Grilled, Tuna on wheat, Fish grilled, etc. etc.

when eating out don't worry about the protein sources it's the sides of starchy carbs that cause concern.

regarding asian food(s)...beware of the rices (super high GI/GR) and some sweet sauces as they are high in sugars as well...

I always get either grilled chicken, lean steak or burger without the bun. For sides, I tell them to hold the potatoes and ask for steamed veggies. If they don't have steamed veggies I get a garden salad with Olive Oil and Vinegar for my dressing. Definately skip dessert and the appetizers. All those places have usually a good protein source but definately be careful on the sides.
