My Rating:I hope everyone had a fantastic (and delicious) Thanksgiving yesterday. It’s Black Friday today, and I will NOT be participating in the shopping festivities. While I used to be the person who would literally camp out at the front door of stores for the best deals, I no longer have the ambition to save a few dollars in that manner. One would think, after seeing my crazy activities with my pasta adventures that I’d be all over that, but maybe when Olive Garden participates in the Black Friday spirit, I’ll come on-board. It’s lunch time, and I’m ready for […]

Day 56, Meal 140
My Rating:It’s time for The Last Supper. 8 Weeks have flew by, and it’s now time for Meal/Visit # 140. After visiting 36 different Olive Gardens across 5 states, I decided to have the final meal at the International Drive – Orlando location, which was the original Olive Garden from 1982 (rebuilt about a mile down the road). The last time I was here was on National Pasta Day. It’s a really nice Olive Garden, and if you are in the area, I would highly recommend this location. The GM, Darrell Sullivan, is one of the best, and the only […]
Day 56, Meal 138
My Rating:It’s the FINAL day! As tonight is The Last Supper, I plan on over-indulging for the first time in 8 Weeks, so I need to conserve my calories. Second up today is Famous House Salad w/Crispy Chicken Fritta: This was another fantastic salad! I think I like this add-in equally as much as the Crispy Shrimp Fritta from the prior meal. Another 9/10. Here is the Ziosk showing a cost savings of $14.82: Here is the nutritional information for this meal:
Day 55, Meal 134
My Rating:It’s Pasta Pass Eve, a very sad night for ALL Pasta Pass recipients. The Never Ending Pasta Bowl promotion ends tomorrow, November 19th at close of business (10 PM), which means our cards concurrently expire at that very moment. But since my card is still valid, I’m ready for 1 of 3 meals today, on a new theme: “Double², On the Rocks”, This consists of getting 2 different sauces & 2 different toppings, + each meal I’ll have one of the new Handcrafted Limonata drinks. I have ONLY ordered water for every single meal, until now, so it’s nice to have […]
Day 54, Meal 133
My Rating:It’s time for meal 3 of 3 today, on the last day of the “Ready for Spaghetti” theme, and I’m going with Spaghetti, Alfredo & Crispy Chicken Fritta [Half]: It’s probably hard to believe with this perfect streak, but this is another 10/10 meal. Meal # 9 across 3 days, and ALL have been perfect 10 rated meals! Amazing. As mentioned earlier, the article from Spencer Jakab, “Forget Atkins! Forget Paleo! What You Need Is the Olive Garden Diet” made the front page of the Wall Street Journal today. Here is a digital snapshot of the section that includes […]
