New Old Favorite at Olive Garden

Most frequently, when we dine at the Olive Garden, we go with my parents. My mom LOVES the Eggplant Parmesan. I'm not such a fan of their marinara, but it's a lot better than the vomit-flavored version at Carabba's. Since I was in high school, my standby at the OG has been Chicken Fettucini Alfredo. However, that changed soon after my husband and I married last year.

On that fateful day, my husband dared the Braised Beef and Tortelloni. Oh. My. Goodness. That dish is pure heaven. The beef just melts in your mouth, and the flavors and textures are perfectly blended. And it's been good at several different Olive Garden restaurants... Never had a bad batch, and I now order it almost every time I go there.

Add some Gnocchi Soup and Breadsticks, and life just doesn't get much better.

Unless perhaps you try the Black Tie...
