As a recently diagnosed diabetic, I find this book extremely helpful in choosing meals when eating out! We enjoy dining out with friends and I travel with my job, so eating out is a must. This guidebook allows me to choose where to grab a quick bite to eat with confidence knowing that I am not sabotaging my sugars or lipids! My only wish is that more restaurants were included in the book, but I'll simply watch for the next edition!!
Keep this book in your purse or backpack!

This book is filled with information that will help you navigate menus and food preparation techniques when you are eating away from home while achieving both great health and great tasting food. Those two goals are not mutually exclusive, and Hope gives you the keys to achieving both outcomes. I found the specific requests and questions she lists in order to help you pleasantly and assertively communicate your food desires to the servers to be especially helpful. No one wants "to make a scene" while ordering food, so Hope's background as a registered dietitian and educator plus being a professionally trained chef gives one confidence that her recommendations are easy for you to say, easy for the waiter to understand, and easy for the kitchen to execute. The book's small size is a plus for keeping this wealth of information handy in your purse or book bag. However, the small size does mean that those of us over age 40 will need to have our reading glasses handy, too.
Compact, easy-to-carry healthy restaurant eating guide has it all!

Wow! I got my copy of Eat Out, Eat Right and I'm not letting it go. The book was recommended on my online weight loss program. As a traveling salesman who is on highways and in metro areas days...and plenty of nights, this book is both an eye-opener and an able assistant. The book divulges the gory nutrition facts of the sandwiches, burgers, and ethnic favorites I consumed too often. I had no clue that foods I thought were OK choices -tuna sandwich, fish sandwich, Caesar salad, sweet and sour pork, chicken quesadilla and more - are loaded with fat and calories. Eat Out, Eat Right's healthy restaurant eating skills are teaching me how to choose healthy foods and control portions...oh yes, a difficult task. Plenty of practical tips and tactics fill the pages of cuisines-specific chapters, from sandwich shops to burger joints and my ethnic favorites of Mexican and Chinese. The book's home is now my glove compartment!

This is a great reference book to have on hand if you eat out in restaurants often. I finally am living in an area where most of the restaurants listed in the book can be found. I really need to get another one to keep in the car.
