"Appetizers, finger foods, hors d'oeuvres ... Whatever you choose to call them, the small plates offered at almost every restaurant are nearly irresistible, whether you order them as something to pick on while waiting for your entree, or even as your main dish. Many starter menus include the basics everyone knows and loves, such as nachos, chicken wings, mozzarella sticks, and fried pickles."
"In the realm of Australian-inspired restaurants in the U.S., Outback Steakhouse is arguably the most popular, with over 650 locations nationwide. Given the name, it's safe to assume that the first thing that comes to mind when we think of the restaurant is steak. But there's one other menu item that customers can't stop talking about: the Bloomin' Onion, a massive, carved-up and deep-fried onion served with a side of signature sauce."
Small plates and appetizers serve as snacks before entrees or as main dishes. Common starter menu items include nachos, chicken wings, mozzarella sticks, and fried pickles. Many restaurants provide complimentary starters like bread and butter or chips and salsa to every customer. Online users on Facebook, Reddit, Yelp, and other platforms repeatedly praise the same ten sit-down chain restaurants for their appetizer selections. Several chains package popular starters for grocery stores as loaves of bread or frozen products. Outback Steakhouse is notable for the Bloomin' Onion and complimentary bread with whipped butter.
