Re: HELP! what to order at the chinese?

The thing with restaurants is we don't know exactly what they put in their meals. I would ask what they add. Perhaps even if they have the nutritional facts. Just tell them you don't eat carbs or sugar, they should be helpful. It also depends on what phase you are on.

I had a look through the Restaurants part of the food forums and found a couple of threads discussing this with some tips that might help.
