Nutrition Facts & Calorie Information

801 Massachusetts St, Lawrence, KS 66044

64items analyzed
"This menu is heavy on calorie-dense pastas, fried and creamy dishes, so it’s overall better suited to bulking rather than strict cutting (though lighter options exist). For cutting, choose the Soup du Jour or House Salad (about 150–200 kcal) — add grilled chicken if you want more protein without blowing your calorie target. For bulking, pick a high-calorie entrée like Fettuccine Alfredo (1200 kcal) or the Nouveau Cordon Bleu (≈1100 kcal) to reach a large surplus in one meal."
