5.0 out of 5 stars Great Update! February 24, 2008
Format:Paperback
I love that Eat Out, Eat Right is small enough to fit into your purse or in your briefcase (or glove compartment) because that's what it's all about--being prepared when you're dining out--so take it along. It's so smartly organized that you can open it quickly to the type of restaurant you're considering and get exactly what you need to know to make smart choices. Kudos to Hope and her publisher for this updated third version, because it pays to be prepared when dining out, and as she notes in her "Trends" chapter, that's what Americans are doing with increasing frequency.

Hope doesn't tell us not to eat out--she tells us HOW to eat out and stay healthy, too. The book begins by defining what a healthy diet is, and then shows the readers how to translate goals into dining skills and strategies. Hope has a deliberate mind--and guides the reader first by showing us how restaurants make it so easy to gain weight and then showing better options. Each cuisine is first defined and described, then we see a 'nutrition snapshot', which can be really scary! We learn 'green flag' and 'red flag' preparation terms (very valuable and once learned makes menu reading extremely simple--you can zero in on best dishes when you know the lingo), and I especially like the 'May I take your order' sections, with best sample meals and nutritional analyses.

And don't forget beverages, and so many diners do. Coffee drinks and alcoholic beverages can be diet dilemmas, demonstrated here--with ideas for lowering fat and sugar, and calories.

Fast food isn't all created equal--and from salad bars and soups to Thai, Deli and even fine-dining, readers learn the difference between a nutrition nightmare and an acceptable entrée or side dish.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for those who eat out frequently February 21, 2008
Format:Paperback
This book is a "must read" for those who eat out frequently and are mindful of healthy eating. The third edition has just been published.

Hope Warshaw, MMSe, RD, CDE does a masterful job of providing practical and realistic guidelines for making healthier menu choices from a wide variety of foods and cuisines, which includes information on popular fast-casual restaurants such as Applebee's and Chili's.

The book which is in paperback is compact and easy to take with you when traveling or just eating out! Happy and healthy dining.

5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable resource ! : ) March 3, 2008
Format:Paperback
I really appreciate that Hope makes practical suggestions and healthier modifications for most foods on a menu. It's not one of those "No NEVER EAT THAT AGAIN" books! It cover's numerous cuisines. Love the handy, small size! I will keep my copy in my glove compartment. I always thought this book was only for people with Diabetes. It is for them AND ANYONE that wants to know how to eat more healthy while eating out!
