[quote=Anonymous]We still eat out regularly, like twice a week on weekends with kids and once or twice a week for myself and my husband. We have always lived in great cities for food and are involved in the restaurant business, so eating out with our kids has been a form of entertainment and a way to spend family time they were infants, as well as a way to spend time with friends. We still look forward to trying out new restaurants, especially when we travel. But it’s less fine dining than it used to be, and I think it’s mostly because it doesn’t fit my lifestyle anymore. Before kids and when the kids were very young, my husband and I would treat ourselves to a nice meal out. Now that the kids are middle school aged, we want to eat with them. So we go to mid range sushi or Indian instead of to a fancy French restaurant. Yes, it’s more expensive than it used to be and the tipping is crazy, so I get why so many people choose not to eat out anymore. [/quote]
