    This has nothing to do with the original concept/internet meme of “girl dinner”, this is just salad and fries. Girl dinner is like… six olives and an entire sleeve of crackers with peanut butter directly out of the jar. Girl dinner is three slices of cheddar cheese, and an entire bag of baby carrots with hummus. If you have the emotional capacity to cook fries and mix a salad, that is not girl dinner, thats just dinner. This is capitalism using buzzwords without understanding what they’re saying and I’m irrationally annoyed by this one in particular because I fucking love Girl Dinner.

    That is all. Hope your next meal is delicious and fulfilling xoxo

      Thank you, this makes so much more sense.

      I also love ‘Girl Dinner’, and I’m just a lazy guy.

      I just tend to call it a mega-snack, and eat slightly different combos of snack foods than I guess the stereotypical (typical?) girl snack foods, but they still aim to hit the same spectrum of food groups and nutrients.

    This dish is some Döner thing, no? They usually mix pommes and something fried with veggies in one thing.

    So I’m a guy and that looks like a fine meal for a night of drinking to me.

    The presentation in a comically oversized martini glass is perhaps a bit silly, but…

    Yeah this just looks like a pre-game meal of champions to me, if you maybe swap out the croutons for something like breaded chicken nuggets or smaller breaded tenders.

      “Girl Dinner” is just grazing random things. French fries and a Caesar Salad aren’t usually served together, so them being in one giant Martini Glass as a meal makes it “girl dinner”

          “girl dinner” is just a commonly used phrase to describe this type of randomly assorted snacks as a meal. At least among the millennial women in the area of the US I’m in. I agree with other people in the comments, this only kind of fits the internet slang definition.

    I suppose that word “girl” refers here to the size of a portion mostly, since this would be a great dinner for many people regardless of their gender.

    Aka, “vegetarian gets dragged to a steakhouse.”

    Watch out, that looks like a Caesar salad, which has anchovies in the dressing.

      Most places are using bottled dressings shits just flavouring and thickeners.

    my one concern is that I wouldn’t want a salad dressing touching my fries. especially since I tend to prefer a light vinagrette.

    I wonder if such a sauce exists that could function as both salad dressing and fry sauce. probably something starting with a thousand island base?
