ǝʌǝʇs  ʞ.ǝʌǝʇs  ʞɐıuzoʍ: Don't think of Outback Steak House as steak only. The filet focaccia sandwich is out of this world with great melted cheese and sipping sauce. I love it even without the sauce.

ǝʌǝʇs  ʞ.ǝʌǝʇs  ʞɐıuzoʍ: Scrape breading off bloomin' onion for low carb diets.

ǝʌǝʇs  ʞ.ǝʌǝʇs  ʞɐıuzoʍ: If you like the Blooming' Onion sauce, it helps to ask for an extra when you order the Onion.
