Getting the kids' item is a great idea. I've also shared the salmon or tilapia entree w/someone, definitely enough food to share and it came w/side of vegetables.
I didn't know you could order the salad w/a different dressing--good to know for next time.
You are right about the Chicken Giordino, it is great and reheats wonderfully for lunch the next day. I also love to order my meals from the seniors or childrens menu portions are so big these days and it can hard to leave food sitting on the plate.
the minestrone soup is heavenly at Olive Garden...I could eat that all day long...
I always keep the breadsticks on the opposite side of the table from me. I get one, tear it in half and give the other half to DH. I make that breadstick last the entire meal. Definitely a difficult task, but worth bragging about that NSV!!!
