If I were going to a fast food restaurant, I’d choose Chik-Fil-A, and here's why... Based on the length of the drive-thru lines, 99% of you probably would too. Here’s why it’s my top pick: ✅ It’s delicious ✅ Highest opportunity for quality protein ✅ Greatest combination variety for high protein, low carb meals Chik-Fil-A is the most common guilty pleasure of many of my men. But they know what to order and they crush it every time. 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁 1. Hash Brown Scramble Bowl (if you’re legit, you’ll skip the hashbrowns) 2. Egg White Grill 3.

Mushrooms are continuing their reign as a top food choice! 🏆 Chefs are adding more mushrooms to menus, especially portabella, maitake, king oyster and lion’s mane. You'll find mushrooms stuffed as an appetizer, sauteed in salads and pastas, and featured in the middle of a sandwich or as a center-of-the-plate star. Grocery stores are also stocked with a growing array of fresh mushrooms. You may be most familiar with white button mushrooms, but look for crimini, shiitake, trumpet, oyster, enoki and other varieties.

Yes, you can enjoy your favorite restaurants and still stay lean.. It’s all about portion control Most people think you have to completely cut out dining out to stay fit, but that’s not true. All you have to do is managing your portions Here’s how to do it: 👉 Choose lean proteins (think grilled chicken, fish, or steak) 👉 Fill half your plate with veggies 👉 Stick to water or unsweetened drinks 👉 Watch out for calorie bombs in sauces and dressings You don’t need to give up your social life to hit your goals. What’s your go-to restaurant order that keeps you on track? Drop it in the comments! 👇

Restaurant servings have become out of control. An occasional treat is fine, but if you eat out often, you need to develop an overall strategy for portion control. Here are a few tips: - Visualize the divisions on a 9-inch plate - Order 2 appetizers instead of an entrée such as a soup and a dinner salad or shrimp cocktail - Split a meal with our dining companion - Don’t rely on the chef or waiter to serve you the proper amount of food. Surveys show that people generally eat everything that’s put in front of them whether they want it or not - Ask for a leftover container right when you place your order. When your meal comes, eyeball your proper portion right away and put the rest into a box to take home. - Stay away from cream sauces, butter, oil, au gratin, breaded, alfredo sauce, gravy, and anything battered or fried. YOU CAN EAT OUT AND BE HEALTHY, but you do need to be hyper aware and make smart choices!

To be an amazing chef, you must acquire quite a few skills. Some believe there are about 12 key skills that every chef must have to succeed in cooking. These abilities are making broths, properly making al-denote pasta, creating delicious sauces, mastering your breakfast development, knowledge about cocktail flavors, cooking efficiency, making dressings by hand, prepping food in advance, roasting meat, roasting vegetables, proper knife skills, and food safety knowledge. Most of these skills are hard skills, which are easier to acquire and more technical. However, soft skills should not be ignored either, as they play a crucial role in your long-term success, customer relationship building, and fulfillment. #food #foodlovers #chefslife #chefstalk #kitchen #culinary #culinaryarts #culinaryskills #hotels #Egypt #executivechef #kitchenmanagement
