i'm afraid that any chinese vegetarian dishes i have had have been drowned
in oil, practically...personally i can not think of any cultural food that
is fat free...but maybe at chinese or japanese restaurants you can order
steamed rice and perhaps steamed veggies and some soy sauce or teriyaki
(does that have oil?) to go with it? and of course there is always
salad...where i work there are tons of restaurants around us but fatfree is
virtually impossible, unless you simply want salad with no
dressing....-cherrie

Where to go for lunch while working? Can anyone make any general
statements about types of restaurants that may be more healthful (fatfree)
than others. For instance, are Chinese vegetarian dishes low fat or
fatfree? Is there an ethnic-type that is more healthful?
Ponderosa and some other restaurants had wonderful salad bars years ago.
But now they have added so many salads that are pre-prepared (such as cold
slaw, potatoe salad, etc., with tons of fat) they have displaced many
vegetables. Are raw salads the only choice?
I understand that cooking methods make the difference but is there a
culture that never cooks with oil? I don't mean to "knock" any culture but
where do healthful (fatfree) people live? Perhaps someone would have a
suggestion about a national chain that caters to low fat or fatfree
alternatives. Thanks.
