Eating Out: Treating Mom And Your Budget!


Everybody should know a nice restaurant where the prices are not outrageous, the food is consistent and the service friendly. Hubby and I are just home from dinner at Joe's Italian Restaurant located in our Mall.

It's a nice little treat, the food is always good and I did not eat too much or too many calories. Joe's has a nice tomato salad with a vinegarette dressing that is very light. I had chicken with angel hair pasta. I ate about half. Hubby went for Cheese Ravoli, and dressed his salad with Blue Cheese. Of course, Hubby does not have to watch his weight!

With tip, our bill was about $21.00 and we feel we had a nice dinner out without breaking the bank.

We noticed when we were away and had to eat out that several restaurant chains were offering some very nice packages. Applebee's has two entrees and an hors d'oeuvre for $20.00 which is a nice special.

If you have children, perhaps you want to go to Cici's Pizza which is always a good buy or to one of several fast food emporiums who are offering specials.

It is a nice break for the entire family and you get to treat Mom to a night out of the kitchen!
