Or the price of the food cost more than if you were to make the dish your self. The only thing i really enjoy in restaurants is more of the social aspect of it rather than the food. This may sound very ego full of me, but i think i can do better than restaurants too =^_^= I dont really like the taste of some restaurant foods, cuz it is either too bland or too many things going on.

We called ourselves the "Go Out to Eat Couple" because we ate out about four nights a week. We had a rotation--Mama Rosa's, Princetonian Diner, Golden China, and Applebees. It lasted about a year but it was an expensive year! Now, we rarely go out to eat because restaurant food isn't nearly as tasty as my home-cooked meal (and we don't have to deal with how loud the restaurant is--when did it become vogue to have a loud restaurant???). Remember when restaurants advertised "tastes just like homemade?" Now, if you watch the commercials, they advertise "restaurant quality at home." *phtt* My cooking is better than 99% of the restaurants. I want to feed my family something better than "restaurant quality..." Well, I will confess that when I started my doctoral studies, the nights I wasn’t at school, my husband and I ate out.
