I'd have to agree that restaurants serve too much food. I very very rarely eat a whole portion servedto me. I opt to take it home instead. One option that most people don't recognize is that at the vast majority of restaurants you can order half your entree to go as soon as you order. My wife and I do this regularly and eat the other half the next night for dinner. Not only does it cut your calories in half, it cuts your food bill in half too.
