Sushi Top - Huntington Beach

I found one item in particular that meets our Lean-and-green Medifast requirement.  When I go here, I order the Salmon Skin Salad.  I ask them to remove the carrots and the fish eggs (actually, I usually keep the fish eggs because I like the texture)  There's about one tbsp on the salad which is equal to about 12 calories.

My kids usually order plain, cold tofu which I eat once in awhile.

 Also, look at their seafood appetizers.  You can basically order from any of the selections of grilled fish.  On their specials, I found the Chilean Sea Bass to be the best!  I asked the discussion boards on the Medifast website and they told me that I can have up to 6 oz of Chilean Sea Bass.  I took home one of the sea bass from Sushi Top before and it weighed at 3.5 ozs.

Red Robin

Not very appetizing is it?  And oh so wrong.

I thought I'd blog some of the restaurants I've tried while on Medifast diet.  I live in Orange County California so if you live around here, I hope this is an excellent source for you.

Today, I tried Red Robin.  Believe me, I didn't think I'd find anything here but since the kids usually dictate where we get to eat .... well, here we are.

There was nothing in their menu that qualifies for Lean and Green so I thought I'd ask for a House Salad.  I asked the waiter what's in it because the menu didn't say.  He said lettuce, cucumber, tomato and cheese.  I said ok but no cheese and no dressing just give me olive oil and lemon.

This is what arrived at our table.  It had croutons and it had carrots.  So I did have to spend my time separating it out. 

I found nothing at Red Robin.  Let me know if you had the same experience.  If you have other restaurants that is Medifast-friendly you would like to share, please share.
