Just to qualify, I'm not a big drinker, just a few times a year

I like to out with friends for drinks and dinner. Unfortunatly my favorite drink is a martini. I'm OK with I one, but they taste so darn good, I always want a second. After the second I'm wasted. I know the obvious answer would be just have one. But, since I do this so infrequently I was wondering if anyone had any 'tricks', like maybe eating something before? Even though I hate to ruin my appetite for dinner, maybe if I have something in my stomach the alcohol wouldn't hit me so fast. Anyone wtih any experience or help would be very much appreciated!
