Restaurant Food Choice for Endurance Event

My move would probably be the risotto- unless otherwise specified it’s likely to be Arborio (white) rice, and typically a pretty simple ingredients list. Mushrooms are lower fiber than most vegetables, and IME unless it’s the kind of place that dumps a ton of cheese and cream in everything it’s usually less dairy-heavy than other options. Seafood stew looks decent too, but sometimes grits can have a ton of fat added and if you’re ordering a stew it’s likely that the carbs are going to be more of a side thing rather than the main focus of the meal.

Ultimately nothing is going to be 100% perfect though, so as long as you’re being relatively sensible and avoiding things you know don’t sit well I wouldn’t overthink it. You could also eat a smaller portion and supplement with other stuff throughout the day/evening if you want to play it really safe :slightly_smiling_face:
