Sunday, October 29: Jane restaurant brunch

I'm starting to understand why it's so easy to become 'over-weighted' in the US. Last week I went to a pizza place, ordered a 20$ pizza and actually got about 1.5 square feet of pizza on my plate (that is a square of 40*30cm). When the waiter got to my table, he nicely noted that I actually ordered a 2-person pizza, thereby reducing his tip to zero...

Now today we had a brunch at Jane restaurant in the village; very crowded place but Bain folks had rented a separate room; I ordered a beef-sandwich with fries (weird concept of brunch they have here) and I think they almost processed an entire cow in my meal... On top of that came some banana-cake dessert of which everybody took about 2 bites just to be polite... Anyway, this just to say that it's quite a challenge to eat healthy here....
