The portion size in the the U.S. is huge and getting bigger. I haven't
eaten an entire meal in a restaurant in years -- fortunately, I like
the leftovers for lunch.

As for the whole restaurant etiquette thing, this is the kind of
stuff us gals should learn when we're dating -- don't order the
expensive item (like lobster) or you'll be expected to pay for it
in other ways... ;-)
