[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's weird to think this is weird.  Why wouldn't I want to try something new, complicated or inventive when I see it on a menu?  Sometimes I plan a special dinner date just to get a souffle when I'm craving one because I certainly cannot make that at home.  By the same token, I try to order the strangest sounding dessert on the menu because my thinking is they wouldn't put it on the menu if it weren't delicious, and the fact that I've never tasted it before is definitely a bonus.[/quote]

Why wouldn’t you just order what you crave? Going out to eat is about a good meal and enjoying the ambiance and people you’re with. Trying something “inventive” just because it’s too tedious to make at home and not getting something you are craving because you can make it at home is so strange. [/quote]

DP here, of course if you're craving something you order that.

But how often do you go out to eat, and instead of craving one thing, you think "Man, so many things sound good!"  That's when you think "I can make a steak tomorrow, but ribs are a lot of work, I'll get those."[/quote]
