What do you enjoy the most? Eating at home or Going out for a meal?

August 7, 2020 2:40am CST
Since the pandemic happens, some of us find cooking and baking as their new found hobbies as lockdowns are being implemented respectively in each countries.. But before lockdowns has happened, do you cook food every meal of the day? Or do you happened to be a regular customer of a certain food chains or restaurant cause you think it's time wise and less effort or maybe you just lack time to cook... As for me, we are use to cook food for every meal that we have.. Mostly almost everyday.. We just wanted a home cooked meal. Eating home cooked meal is very satisfying. And there is some kind of strong bond that keeps our family closer.. And we barely got to order on food chains or restaurants.. We only do that if there's a certain occasions like birthdays cause we think that it'll be somewhat hassle free and timewise if we just go out their occasionally.. Sometimes I order when I go out and don't have the time to go home on time.. How about you? Do you often go out to eat? Or would you rather have a wholesome meal at home and have a little chitchat with family?

Some good meals are not readily available at home, so for one to satisfy that taste most times I look for a good restaurant that has what I want.

I like to cook and I prefer to cook our meals and eat at home, this also before the pandemic. We went out time by time for the pleasure to go out, but I do not miss going out.

By Jessa Arienda @Hanbinandaeyo Since the corona started I would rather eat at home, but, normally I prefer to eat at home and go out to eat for special occasions so do not have to cook or clean up afterwards.

@Hanbinandaeyo You are right that we have choices on what we want to do about eating whether to eat at home or go out to eat.

Really my choice has nothing to do with the pandemic. For me it has always been a matter of simple economics. It's just cheaper to cook than it is to eat out, and so we hardly ever go out to eat. We do occasionally order for delivery. But for what it costs to order a meal at a restaurant I could buy groceries to eat for a month.

Nothing beats home cooked meals. But sometimes, when you're too lazy to cook the convenience of fast foods is very helpful.
