Rocky Balboa is two-time Heavyweight Champion of the World. He is also a very strong-minded family man. You can see how he is the type of man who would want take his wife Adrian and son Rocky Jr. out to a nice dinner. Nothing fancy, but a family place. Rocky is an Italian-American. He might just take his family out to the
Olive Garden.
Here are few dishes Rocky might order from the menu.
Appetizers:
Dipping Sauces
Yo, Rocky likes to keep things simple. He is not the type of man that would eat squishy foods. He probably would enjoy a whole basket of bread sticks for himself with two small bowls of marinara sauce on the side to dip. Not the Alfredo sauce, that's too heavy a food for a boxer.
Salad:
Garden-Fresh Salad
Again, simple is best. He could eat a single garden-fresh salad family sized bowl with Olive Garden's own signature Italian salad dressing all to himself.
Entrée
Garlic-Herb Chicken con Broccoli
You have to imagine Rocky is always in training. He likes lean meats without fatty creamy sauces. With this dish, he would enjoy rosemary-seasoned chicken breasts that are sautéed with fresh broccoli. Chicken served in a garlic cream sauce over orecchiette pasta. He might said, "
Yo, this eats good."
Dessert
Zeppoli
This is a traditional Italian dessert. Rocky likes tradition. Zeppoli are soft Italian-styled donuts dusted with powdered sugar. You can eat the donuts as is or dip them in a chocolate sauce served on the side.
