I definitely suggest you purchase the Dining Out Companion. I have a copy in the house and I plan on getting a copy for my purse. It's so helpful. It has chain restaurants in it, but there is a section for restaurant food, non chain and a section for ethnic foods.
And 8 Oz Sirloin in 8PP, so I would have picked the 8 Oz filet Mignon, depending on the sides (it doesn't list them...). Maybe the Chicken fajitas. A generic tortilla is 3PP. You build your own, so you determine how light or heavy you go on the cheese, sour cream, etc. 1/4 Mexican cheese is 4PP. The veggies are only a few points (cooked in oil, you could even ask for it cooked without oil) and white chicken meat is generally 1 PP for every 1 ounce. The Oriental Chicken would make my list too. A small order of fries is usually 10-12PP, so you could get the grilled chicken sandwich with fries also.
The thing about eating out and enjoying it is planning, asking for what you want and don't want and relaxing! And don't eat it if it didn't come the way you asked! It's probably too late, but maybe that will help for next time!
