Since I don't cook meals at home, I often go to restaurants for lunches and dinners. I like going to buffets in the weekends. For a nice change, I would enjoy going to restaurants of different cuisines, Chinese, Japanese, and more. There are many different restaurants in the city here. I very much enjoy buffets at the Japanese restaurants. All the preparations are so tasty. Yummy, yummy ! Do you enjoy going to restaurants of different cuisines ?

Hey greenline! I don't really get that much of an opportunity to eat out in restaurants since I'm not working. And I definitely don't have that big a choice of different cuisines! I absolutely love Chinese food! I am not overly fond of Japenese food unless it is cooked, not sushi! The only time I do get to have a bit of a choice of different cusinines is if I go out to the Mall Food Court! They have a variety of different cusines to choose from! They may not have the best food, but the certainly have a vast selection from Chinese, Japenese, Italian, Greek! And the food is really pretty tasty too! I am going there this Saturday so I am looking forward to something different for a change!

No, I really don't. Because you don't get the actual experience of those countries, just a taste that it's very generic and made in a non-special way. If I want to really enjoy the cuisine of other countries I go to the places of my friends in those countries and have the actual experience around there.

hi greenline.. I lived in a multi racial country, therefore we have at least the big 3 cuisines available, i.e. Malay, Indian and Chinese.. and of course, being living in such a country, we also have other expats that lived here such as Dutch, Itallian, British, US, Nepal, Middle East and so forth.. I enjoyed these cuisines too, however we don't do it often, since I still prefer the home cook food. We are more common to westerns and japanese cuisine, as they are more commonly available in the country.. I think almost every shopping mall will offer this kind of cuisine restaurant. I personally enjoyed Italian, and Japanese the most, and each time, we will tend to go to these places if we have any gathering... I just back from a good Japanese meals tonight..

I certainly do. Unfortunately, I am the only one in my family and circle of friends who enjoys trying different cuisines. I don't go out to eat much anymore though because of the money situation. I prepapre my meals at home. But when I do go out, I prefer to vary the foods that I try. I have a friend who keeps telling me he is going to take me to his favorite Indian restaurant. I have never tried Indian food. I'm a little wary about that though. I'll try anything, but I'm really not too fond of curry.

Yes i enjoy going to restaurants of different cusines.I will go to a place here where they serve fresh samosas and lassi(curd beaten with sugar).If i want chinese items i will go to a hotel where the taste of the fried rice and noddles is nice.I have always thought of kfc in my mind for chicken lollipops but i have not gone there.I eat cheesy burst pizzas from dominos which i enjoy once a month.I also love to eat burgers from macdonalds but i do it once a year when i go to the supermarket.

Hey, Yea of course, I love to go to different cuisines and try out different types of food. For some reason, I always get bored of the food that I eat at home, I just don't know why. Maybe because I have been eating it for my whole life the same foods. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

I do enjoy eating out once in a while even though these days I cannot afford to do it very often. When I go out to eat, because I do not get to do it often, I usually stick to what I know. I really like italian cuisine and I like indian food too. So I mostly stick to that. But if I had more money and could afford to eat out more often I think I would try more different types of food.

Hi greenline, I guess we're in the same boat. Though eating at home saves money, often we eat out as it's more convenient but we don't do that all the time. We normally eat Chinese food, but I enjoy eating a variety of cuisines. I've eaten Italian, Thai, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese and Indian food. Boy, this is making me hungry already

I am not really adventurous when it comes to food. I tend to order food that I am familiar with whenever I go to some new restaurants. I am not really into tasting those which are a bit experimental because I have a weak stomach and I throw up easily. But I like going to different restaurants because of the interiors and ambience and not the food. I am a designer and I like being able to see different looks and concept. I kinda feast my eyes most often and not my stomach.

I cook 6/7 meals at home for my family, therefore, it is a welcome change to eat at a restaurant to not cook. My husband makes it a point to eat out 1x a week, to give me a break from cooking. I definitely am all for it. We have tried a lot of restaurants and our favorites are Italian, Asian (Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Malaysian, Indian)and of course, French. We also want to try those exotic ones like Moroccan, Ethiopian, Lebanese, etc. The list seems to be endless.

I would say that I'm definitely very adventurous when it comes to trying different cuisines, plus the fact that I travel gives me that opportunity to try things I might ordinarily not think of. I really enjoy anything ethnic, and while I can cook Italian, Greek, Spanish at home, I'm not very experienced when it comes to Asian cuisine, or Indian even. Also it can be quite expensive cooking different ethnic recipes because of the multitude of ingredients you need at times, things that you might ordinarily have in your pantry. I really don't like anything mainstream whether it's with clothes, music, furniture, food, etc. so I relish the chance to try unique foods. I've tried everything from Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Arabic, Moroccan, Indian, Afghani, Persian, etc. and love them all. I probably tend to eat Vietnamese food more than anything else, especially they're fabulous pho soups, salad rolls with peanut sauce, bbq meat skewers, etc. There is always something nice to appreciate in every culture I find, and cooking happens to be one of the best. :)

Hi Greenline, i hope that all is well with you. I think that is great but now in these difficult times, i would rather cook and eat at home with my fathehr and my girls. Life here is so difficult now, that we can not afford to eat out, though i know my girls would love that very much. Lucky for you that you can have a variety of choices but if i get the chance i think i will choose Chinese, which i am more familiair with.Happy eating, my friend!

Well; I do like cuisines of different kinds .I like South indian ,Pizzas ,Pastas and have even tried Thai Vegetables and Manchurian .However;I am not a frequent visitor to restaurants . Also ,with the economic recession and no salary rise;I have cut back more on eating out and have become more selective . I however;do read a bit on different eating out options in my city .

I love to eat at foreign restaurants, and I think it is very interesting to try new kinds of food. I have had the chance to eat food from China, Vietnam, Japan, Thailand, Indonesia, Russia, Morocco, India, Pakistan etc, and I have discovered a lot of delicious dishes that way. I like buffet restaurants a lot, because I am curious and I like to eat many different kinds of dishes. In the future I would like to eat food from other countries for instanse the Phillipines or Malaysia, I love to try new food.

I love to do that once in a while. It's pretty costly for such restaurants, I might burn my wallet per visit. My favourite is the Japanese Cuisines. I love sushi the most. Chinese cuisines are also delicious. I never try eating at Italian Restaurant though. It's a good idea to try that too.
