If it wasn't for having family come visit we hardly ever go out to a restaurant.The last time we went out to eat had to be over 3 years ago when we went to Chili's. I much rather cook at home and sit on my couch and watch TV instead sitting in a restaurant waiting for my food and paying a lot of money.
Every once in a while we get some take out on the weekends from the Mexican place around the corner.We used to order Pizza a lot but that got to spendy too.
What's your pleasure and your favorite place to dine in or take out?

Home food is healtheir and tastier, it is prepared not only with selected ingredients, they are prepared with love and care, but I often go to restaurants, because of some unique dishes, like biriyanis, steaks, grills, pizzas etc....

We make our own pizza it's frozen but we put extra toppings on and they taste great.
I also don't have money to eat out.
Thanks for sharing

If i had the money in the world, i would definitely go for take out or eating out because i can choose different meals. And i know that those foods taste great coz it is cooked by the pro. But for now, im contented with homecooking. It's not that bad actually especially if my mother cooks.:D


myLot reputation of 98/100. missybear (2133)   ranked 29 out of 5,389 in eating  4 weeks ago

I just rather be at home were it's nice and cozy than in a crowded restaurant spending lots of money on little food.

I'd rather eat at home, at least then I know it was prepared right and it wasn't scooped off the floor or spit on. I can also usually make more and save money at the same time.

!!Happy Turkey Day!!

You got a point there. You never know what's going on in restaurant kitchens.

I hate to burst your bubble but unless you have seen the food being grown and cleaned and brought right to your table, you know what has happened to it. Even ther grocery store veggies or butcher meats.

It's nice to go out every now and again, but I tend to be practical like you. I prefer home cooking too. And, like you say, your own home is more comfortable as well.;scooch over would ya;

Home cooking has it's obvious benefits, for a start we know exactly whet we're eating and we know how clean our kitchens are. I like to eat at home most of the time but I do enjoy going to restaurants, nothing too posh though because I don't feel comfortable in those places. I occasionally ordar a takeaway if I'm feeling indulgent or if I just want a change but most of the time I just prefer a nice home cooked meal.


myLot reputation of 98/100. missybear (2133)   ranked 29 out of 5,389 in eating  4 weeks ago

I do like take out every once in a while.

I like eating blush be it be in a nice restaurant, at home with a warm home cooked meal or take out food.
I like cozy restaurants with nice service crew where I can relax and eat with leisure. I usually do this with my close friends and with my husband. Home cooked meal and take out food are usually shared with the whole family. This is a lot of fun too.
Cheers! cool

My honey is not much into eating out either. I guess that's why we both don't mind eating at home.

We like to eat out. I like Earl's for a regular everyday kind of place. We don't really like take-out food that much.


myLot reputation of 98/100. missybear (2133)   ranked 29 out of 5,389 in eating  4 weeks ago

I never heard of Earl's. confusedWhat kinda food do they serve.

I love to eat. I love fine dining. But most often, we eat here at home together with my family. Every Sunday, we gather at my mom's place which she prepares her best recipe.

Nothing better than mom's cooking. thumbup

while i like to go out and eat, i would rather eat at home because its more cozy. you can watch tv if you want and that sort of thing. we go out to eat maybe once a year and get pizza maybe once every few months ($5- for med pizza) but mostly eat at home.


myLot reputation of 98/100. missybear (2133)   ranked 29 out of 5,389 in eating  4 weeks ago

I went out when my family was here in April and then again in September so I'm good for a while.
The good thing was they paid.

I cook pretty much every night and I admit sometimes I enjoy a little break eating out, but it is very costly, and it seems every time we do go out I shudder at the price and it kind of ruins the whole experience for me. Especially with a family of 5 and the two older kids not ordering off the kids menu any more it is just way to expensive to go out. Also like you said even ordering pizza is too expensive these days. We usually need 2 to have enough for all of us, and with delivery taxes and tip you are talking at least $40.00 and for pizza that is just crazy.


myLot reputation of 98/100. missybear (2133)   ranked 29 out of 5,389 in eating  4 weeks ago

I agree. We used to order pizza, mozzarellablush sticks and sometimes some chicken wings and there's only 2 of us.
