Suggestion #2: Share a Meal
One of our favorite budget restaurants is, believe it or not, the Olive Garden. As you may know, they offer unlimited salad (or soup) and breadsticks with any entree purchase. We enjoy the salad and breadsticks so much that we found we were never able to finish our meals because we were already so full before they came! A few years back, while perusing the menu, we decided to split the Tour of Italy and have never looked back. I get the fettuccine alfredo, my husband gets the chicken parm & lasagna, and we both end up quite full. (Please note that every once in awhile you may get a server who will insist on charging you extra for sharing the salad, but it's still cheaper than two entrees.) While not every restaurant offers unlimited starters, and some may even charge a "plate fee" for sharing an entree, this is still a viable option at many restaurants. Give it a try!
