If it wasn’t for how many calories were in the wonderful food at the Olive Garden I think my family would eat there twice a month. That’s a lot for us considering at most we eat out once a week. We try very hard to stay home, but sometimes, a mother just doesn’t feel like cooking. And Olive Garden tastes divine!
To help kick off the annual Never Ending Pasta Bowl promotion they conduced a survey to uncover America’s pasta passions.
Nearly seven in ten (68%) Americans believe that an Italian restaurant is the perfect place to bring the family. But friends and significant others are a close second! More than half of Americans say that an Italian restaurant is also the perfect place to bring friends (55%) or a date (54%).
Another interesting fact:
If given the choice to sit down to an Italian dinner with a special person like a relative, movie star, celebrated athlete or the President of the United States, among others, 47 percent of Americans would choose a family member.
If it were me, I would choose my HUSBAND. So I’m part of the 47 percent. Who would you choose?
The Never Ending Pasta Bowl promotion runs now through October 10th offering visitors to the restaurant endless servings of pasta with over 40 pasta/sauce combinations. At only $8.95 per guest it is no wonder why Olive Garden received #1 Best Value for Full Service Chains by Zagat.
