Really? A weight-loss-surgery menu? Yep.

Over the bridge, Ralic’s Steakhouse (26 S. Haddon Ave., 856-616-1520) in Haddonfield “Unveils Menu Designed for Obese Diners,” exclaims a less-than-tactfully-worded release that recently found its way to our inbox. If you’re thinking the concept sounds a little ... slimy, you should know this not some exploitative marketing ploy. “I had [weight-loss] surgery on May 1, and I noticed there’s no menu for people like me,” says owner David Ralic, who’s dropped 40 pounds since the procedure. The special menu, designed in collaboration with a local bariatric nutritionist, features portions in 1 to 4 ounces, sugar-free desserts and complimentary unsweetened iced tea. Check it out after the jump.

Appetizers

1-ounce Crab Cake with Avocado-Tomato Chutney, $4

2-ounce Scallop with Celeriac Puree, $5

Entrees

4-ounce Pan-Seared Salmon with Carrot, Ginger Puree and Sauteed Spinach, $13

3-ounce Filet Tip with Cranberry Goat-Cheese Quinoa and Sauteed Kale, $15

4-ounce Pan-Seared Chicken Breast with Sweet-Potato Smash and Sauteed Swiss Chard, $9

Desserts

Assorted Sugar-Free Desserts, $3
