Macaroni Grill's Grilled Salmon

I am really not obsessed about food. But Jen commented on my last post and let me know that Macaroni Grill still has the teriyaki salmon. Could it be?? Wahoo! 10+ years ago they told me they had taken it off their menu and I haven't tried ordering it since. Of course, I probably haven't been there more than a handful of times since then either. Back in the day when I was working (for dollars as opposed to now when I work for hugs and kisses) I used to go there for lunch all the time and I always got the salmon. Now I am going to have to make a trip over there to try it out again and see how it compares with the Island Teriyaki.

While I am on the topic of yummy entrees that restaurants have taken off their menus, Olive Garden had a dish called "chicken castellina" that I loved. In hopes that I was mistaken and it was really still on their menu, I went to their website to take a look. Unfortunately it does not appear to be on the menu. However, they have a recipe section and it is posted there! I was pretty excited until I took a look at the long list of ingredients and thought "fat chance I'll ever make that"! But who knows, maybe someday I'll get really inspired. Anyway, if YOU are feeling really inspired, you can make it .... and be sure to invite me over. Click here to check it out.
