It's scary when your BG goes unexpectedly high. I know from experience how annoying it can be because mine's high at the moment because of illness.
How about working out your carbs before eating using something like the MyFitnessPal app then plating up your dinner yourself using scales to give the exact amount you have worked out that you can eat. It's no good guestimating portions when you are so new to low carbing, especially when you are eating so many relatively carby foods.
Eventually you will know what you can eat more or less freely and those things you should restrict and the best way of doing that is to work out your carbs before you eat.
