WASHINGTON - The typical Chinese restaurant menu is a sea of nutritional no-nos, a consumer group has found. A plate of General Tso's chicken, for example, is loaded with about 40 percent more sodium and more than half the calories an average adult needs for an entire day.
The battered, fried chicken dish with vegetables has 1,300 calories, 3,200 milligrams of sodium and 11 grams of saturated fat.

Extreme boredom has finally set in for my summer vacation. Unfortunately, my favorite things to do when I'm bored are eating and spending money. That's where good restaurants come in!

Astons, a great restaurant with quality food at affordable prices. I had been to the Suntec City oulet and the one at the Ang Mo Kio Ave 8 Wang Wei Li
Coffeeshop.
It's simply a great dining experience at Astons.

My new favorite restaurant for take out!
I have friends from Pakistan, and whenever they visit me they cook a huge, delectable feast. And this restaurant's food tastes just like it.

More restaurants offering gluten-free menus
Increasing awareness of people with incurable wheat allergies
AP News
NEW YORK - As a longtime chef in four-star restaurants, Joseph Pace had seen appreciative customers before. But nothing prepared him for the day that a well-dressed man walked into his Greenwich Village restaurant, ordered a pizza and a beer, and broke into tears.
That man, Pace recalls, had been diagnosed ten years earlier with celiac disease — an incurable affliction that makes the body unable to take anything containing gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye.

Your boss asks you to lunch with a top client, and he chooses a nearby steakhouse whose chef isn’t focused on organic food.
So, how do you deal with these common dining dilemmas?

Petros Restaurant
451 Manhattan Beach Blvd.
Manhattan Beach, CA 90266
310.545.4100
I find Greek cuisine as one of the heartiest and healthiest food choices all around. And recently, one of our Greek friends just had her birthday and it was a no-brainer to check out Petros as it was just named "Top New Restaurant" by Zagat (and rightfully so).
