[quote=Anonymous]I think I'm a decent home cook, so when I'm looking at a menu I do tend to gravitate toward the options that I do not or can not make well on my own. A big part of my restaurant enjoyment is trying new things. But at a very good restaurant that would be pretty much the entire menu. A good professional chef with a well-trained team is working at a different level than even the best home cook. At more basic restaurants, I try to figure out what the kitchen is likely to be good at and try to order that - even if it's just a burger. Or more often, I will go to ethnic restaurants with cuisines that I have little experience preparing on my own. My preference is for novelty, creativity, and great skill, whether it's the little Vietnamese place in the burbs or a swanky restaurant downtown. For reference, I have been all the classes at various points in life. [/quote]
