Let’s celebrate the weekend with a round of “would you rather”
Would you rather go out for a fancy dinner or stay in for a home cooked meal?
Going out to a nice restaurant with your friends, family or partner can be so therapeutic. There’s often soft music and a variety of drinks and food options and you don’t have to clean up.
But staying in is also fun. And if things get really hot over your meal with your partner, you don’t have to travel far to take it to the next level. Would you rather go out?
You can try new foods
Cooking something new can be quite intimidating, especially if you’re unsure about whether you’d like it or not. Eating out allows you try something new without putting in alot time and effort.
You do not have to cook
Cooking takes a lot of time and commitment. Sometimes you may just not have the time or energy to prepare a meal, and eating out would be an easier option.
You get to spend time with family and friends
Food is a way of bringing people together for a long time so eating out with family and friends is enjoyable. Going to a favorite restaurant with a group of people you value can be a great way to bond with one another.
It’s easier to feed large parties
If you’re throwing a party or just planning on meeting with a large group of people, planning food for a lot of people can get quite difficult and costly. In some cases, catering from restaurants can also be cheaper than preparing food yourself for large groups.
However, It’s Expensive. Restaurant food tends to almost always be overpriced yet most times you can make the same dishes from a restaurant menu at home for much cheaper. It may be a better option for you to stay in and make your meal at home rather than spending money outside.
You can’t control the way the dish is prepared
A lot of us tend to have preferences when it comes to the way our food is prepared. Eating out limits the adjustments we can make to our food whiocould be a problem for people who have dietary restrictions. Preparing dishes at home lets you adjust the ingredients in your meal as you wish. Would you rather cook at home?
Saves money
It is cheaper to prepare food and eat at home than to go in restaurants. When you eat home you buy only for food if you have all the necessary cookware.
Eat healthy
People who eat home often make better and healthier food choices.
Eat right portions
Individuals usually put in their plates only certain amount of food they can eat or according to their diet.
Save time on commuting
After the diner you do not have to get into the car and drive home, but instead you can spend some time with your family or friends enjoying other activities.
However, you might waste alot of time in the kitchen preparing food.
Waste of food
Some people especially those who do not know how to cook might waste their time if they spoil the dish.
