Portion size

How important is "value" to you when you go to a restaurant. Do you choose good food with large portions? Mediocre food but all you can eat? Great food, but small portions? Do you know places that have great food and huge portions. Massachusetts has a lot of ethnic food areas and one of the cuisines is Portuguese. If you've never had Portuguese food you are missing out, especially if you love seafood. So last night we do the 75 mile one way drive to New Bedford and go to Antonio's. All Portuguese food (grilled sardines, quail, but while its Spanish, Paella there is beyond tasty. It is incredible. I get the paella for one after a Stuffed Quahog and a shrimp croquette as an appetizer. Lobster, littlenecks, mussels, shrimp, scallops beef, chicken all in a saffron broth with great rice. So I eat and eat, and eat, and eat and eat. I manage to eat half, wife claims 40%. The portion is so huge that while she's putting it into a take out container I realize I missed half a lobster tail as well as many other creatures from the sea all covered up. Those big white take out containers? Can't get all my leftovers into just one. Just a lot of amazingly tasty food, but the price? $22.95. Cannot believe this place.
