Scribbles About Food: Olive Garden Chicken Parm Sandwich Review

So... I thought I'd review an Olive Garden Sandwich because I was curious about it since it was released. I don't have pictures of anything... I wish I did... I debated posting this because there were no pictures... but I don't think I'm going to order this again... so yeah.

Salad and Breadsticks 
First let's talk about the Salad and the breadsticks. You can get a soup or salad with every order and you always get breadsticks. I love the breadsticks! They're nice and warm and not overly garlic-y but not too garlic-y. I just like them. And I like the salad too... its not the freshest salad... it tastes good though. I like it. I get it without olives because I don't like olives.

Chicken Parm Breadstick Sandwich and Fries 
So this sandwich wasn't bad... but I don't think I'm a big fan of Olive Garden's tomato sauce... there's nothing really awful about it... but its a little much. It didn't have a bad taste or anything... it's just kind of tomato-y. I'm not sure how some tomato sauce can be more or less tomato-y than others... but this was especially tomato-y and it just wasn't my favorite.

I liked the bread. It wasn't just like the breadsticks that they always serve... it was a sandwich bread that was kind of the same consistency as the breadsticks... and that was pretty good. I liked the texture and it wasn't bad with the sandwich.

The cheese on the sandwich was pretty good... not a whole lot, most chicken parm sandwiches kind of don't have the most cheese... it is what it is. The cheese gets lost in the bread a little bit... but this wasn't too bad... it was just overwhelmingly tomato-y.

The main reason I ordered this sandwich was because of the fries... I really wanted fries that day... and I LOVED their fries! They were nice and crispy and thin... and really really yummy. Salty, but not too salty. The ketchup was where the over- tomato-yness started for real though... cause that ketchup tasted extra tomato-y... Idk if it was regular Heinz... didn't taste like it... really not sure about it.

So yeah... that's kind of everything. Not my favorite... not something I'd order again... let me check Olive Garden's Menu to see what other sandwiches they might have... they have another Spicy Calibran sandwich... not sure what that is... but it might not have tomato sauce... so yeah? That might be good... I just want to get those fries again. Lol.

BTW- This was a lunch combo where you can get soup or salad and then a lunch option. I thought you used to always get salad with it... but yeah. I guess not?

Byeee!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Throwback Thursday: The Incredibles

This is one of the more underrated movies in the Pixar Universe... thatI think is actually getting more popular now than it was back when it was released... so that's good. I think it really stands the test of time... but it still isn't one of my favorites. This movie I think is pretty cool because it was the first time Pixar really used humans. When I was little I thought "Toys, Bugs, Monsters, Fish... the next movie will be about dogs!" And I was surprised it was this! I didn't know Pixar could do that! But I guess technically its about heroes and not humans... but then Pixar began to show more humans in their world and The Pixar Theory was started... and yeah. I just kind of want to state my opinion on the Pixar Theory here too cause why not: I don't believe that Pixar set out to create this elaborate world with all the movies connected... but I do still believe it exists in some way shape of form. It all adds up and checks out... so for me... somehow t...

Rereading My Favorite Thing I Wrote In College

Hey guys! I'd say "today's post is a little different" but they're all kind of different to begin with... so this might end up being the same- or at least something that can fit into this blog in a nice way. So I don't want to post the actual thing that I wrote... but in my college Creative Writing Class that I took at 21 we needed to write a fantastical realism short story. And I wrote something that I always liked. The lead character was a smart and sassy woman... the fantastical elements were exciting and unique... and the story as a whole had a cute ending and a good message... and I really liked the way that I took what happened in my real life and changed it into this amazing and fantastical thing. Re-reading it... it was still pretty good. I actually liked the ending a little bit better because it had a nice message about believing in yourself that I kind of just snuck in there without much thought... and there was a cute little love story. I liked ...
