My favourite restaurant is Olive Garden because they have amazing food and wonderful service. They have a variety of chicken dishes, an especially wonderful range of barbeque. I really like the mats they give you while your order is being prepared; they usually feature activities like crosswords, colouring pages etc. And their breadsticks are the best breadsticks I have ever taken a bite in. Their soups and salads give your the perfect Italian taste, complete with feta cheese and olives. My favourite dish there is the Fettucine Alfredo; its a pasta made in creamy white sauce with parmesan base. Their desserts are just finger-licking, take their Tiramisu for example. It is perfect. That's all I have to say.
