Red Lobster Revamping Menu

According to a Fox News article today, popular seafood chain Red Lobster is planning changes to its menu by the middle of the month.  It will be increasing the number of lower cost entrees (less than $15) to appeal to customers cutting back on spending. Items in this price range represent about 40 percent of the current menu selections. This proportion will be increased to about 60 percent.

A quarter of the new menu will be non-seafood dishes, up from 8 percent and will include a Parmesan-crusted Chicken Alfredo and Pork chops.  Roasted Vegetable Skewers will represent the first vegetarian entree that isn’t salad or pasta.  For those who want to go light, the Island Grilled Mahi-Mahi and Shrimp is only 510 calories.  There are now three salads, including the Bar Harbor Salad, which has dried berries, pecans and blue cheese.

A new ‘‘Four-Course Feast’’ that comes with a soup, salad, entree and dessert will be offered for $15.99.  For those who want to splurge, the NY Strip Steak & Rock Lobster Tail will still be available for $32.99.
