Dining Out - October 2007

I know I'm spending WAY too much, but having a hard time figuring it all out. How much do you spend (and family size) each month for groceries? Here's what I'm including: any eating out (sit down restaurants, fast food, starbucks, etc) & all groceries (anything you buy at the grocery store, including cleaning supplies, toilet paper, laundry detergent, food, drinks, meat, veggies, etc). I keep track of my spending and for my husband & I we are spending close to $1000/month! This is about $400-450 for groceries (as described above) and around $525-$600 for lunches & eating out. We dont' go to "fancy" places and I do buy some generic items instead of brand name. I have been logging my receipts to see what I really spend (not just what I think) and I have been shocked. Do others spend this much? Are you just estimating? How sure are you that your guess is accurate or do you have a budget? Thanks.

I'm a college student. I'm hungover. And I need some good delivery tonight. Starving. Craving something totally fattening and horrible.

My choices are basically narrowed down to Domino's, maybe a pizza and cheesy bread

OR

This really good place that serves all kinds of chicken wings and sandwiches and crap

HELP

These two restaurants were favorites in our area and they both closed overnight.

NYC has Patsys in Halem. Sauce kills you 2 hours later.
DaFari s in Brooklyn is very dirty and slow.
Tacanelli s in Philly is OK

Pizzeria Regina in Boston by far the best. I am originally from NYC and now CT.

Any recomendations, pls dont say Papa Johns or Chicago style

If you could walk in front of the grill and the cook area and were able to watch the chefs make your dinner, would that make your night a little more intersesting? or just keep it behind doors?

I have 2 subway sandwiches I like to get, I just want to know does anyone find them savory or nasty. I like the chicken bacon ranch with shredded cheese and lettuce on toasted white bread, and sometimes I get roast beef, american cheese, mayo, mustard, sweet onion sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, and banana peppers on white bread warmed up in the microwave. What do you think?

Yeah...I'm bored. :)

How many packets of ketchup do you use for a large mcdonald's french fry? I went through the drive thru for lunch and asked for "a lot" of ketchup and the guy gave me 4 packets, maybe I just like my ketchup but I need more than 4. So I was curious how many on average other people use. Best answer will go to the person who uses the same amount that I used today. P.S. a co-worker had a stash of packets so I used some of theirs.

I thought it quite odd that on a date yrs ago, the guy I was with claimed that the restaurant "lost" his reservation, and that most likely, we would wind up at a table next to the kitchen. Sure enough, that was exactly where we wound up.

I'm wondering if this is a standard practice among restaurants, to "leave" the table(s) next to the kitchen area as "open" unless a situation like a lost (or never received...late people) reservation occurred. I'm thinking that my date NEVER set the reservation, and scrambled to get a table, and that was the only one open because of his blunder.

What's your spin on this?

Are you sure about that ther OREO. Society seems to
get a kick from the good ol fashioned VANILLA flavored
cookies. Some say original is best ! Both are of equal
value to me, try the Nabisco Vanilla. Tasty ! But we love
our OREOS don't we kids. Which is better ? Best
answer wins.
