Hard Rock Cafe suggestions?

would you get a grilled chicken sandwich, or the cobb salad? It seems to me that salads can be awfuly high in cals. from restaurants now..Im going to the hard rock cafe this wkend, and im at a total loss for what to get. They lack in Nutritional information also.

These are the things im trying to decide between:

herb grilled chicken breast
bonless marinated chicken breast, grilled and marinated  with fresh herbs, garlic & pure olive oil. served with mashed potatoes and oven roasted mushrooms and light herb sauce

Chicken Club Sandwich
grilled chicken, tomato, fresh lemon mayo,and two kinds of lettuce served on toasted bread. I'd skip the fries and ask for the vegtables.

Cobb Salad
mixed greens topped in rows with chicken breast, avacado, tomato, red onion, seasoned bacon, cheddar and jack cheese, and hard boiled egg. Light italian dressing.

Honey Citrus Grilled Chicken Salad
Fresh cut greens tossed with sweet reed onions, grilled cajun chicken and tossed with our honey-citrus dressing. topped with fresh orange segments, spiced pecans, red pepper strips and blue cheese crumbles.

Maryland Style Crab Cake Sandwich
Delicate lump crab cakes quickly seared and served on a toasted bun with fresh lemon tartar sauce.

.......any suggestions?

I'd personally go with this

herb grilled chicken breast
bonless marinated chicken breast, grilled and marinated  with fresh herbs, garlic & pure olive oil. served with mashed potatoes and oven roasted mushrooms and light herb sauce

not as many cheese, fats, carbs (like the bread on the sandwich) and sodium... maybe get a different veggie than mashed potatoes... probably isn't too bad as long as you don't eat them a lot :) I heard to limit potato consumption b/c of the starchiness?? and be careful with restaurant veggies... It seems they marinate them in butter before cooking them in butter... find out if you can get them butterless :)

good luck!

Don't get the Cobb Salad - avacado, bacon, cheese, and eggs?  Wow, talk about rackin' up the cals.

I would go with the herb grilled chicken breast, and see if they can sub some veggies for the mashed potatoes (some restaurant mashed potatoes are just as bad as french fries for cal and fat content).  or the Honey Citrus Grilled Chicken salad, and tell them to leave off the pecans, and serve fat free dressing on the side.

good luck!

i would get the chicken salad with the dressing on the side, and no bread. santonacci is right. the cobb salad would be the worst because of the cheese, bacon and avocado.

I would also take crab cake sandwich off, they are breaded and fried..the toasted bun usually translates into they butter it first, then toast it.  I would choose the grilled chicken salad salad with light italian or the club sandwich, but would not get the mayo on it (I like light italian on my chicken sandwiches).  Odd though, I thought cob salad had blue cheese, not cheddar?

thanks everyone! this helps, i'll just play around with the meals using all these suggestions til i come up with a good meal.

Leiann - I think i may have to try light italian on my chicken sandwiches! that sounds yummmy!

Places like this kill salads by adding all that high-cal stuff to it. give me a plain salad with a little cheese. goodness! =)
