Do you really think places like Gator's actually cook?
I'm sure their boneless wings come in frozen, and they deep-fry them and splash some buffalo sauce over them. I'm also sure their salad greens come already washed and cut.

But the ability to get out of the house, have someone else do the deep frying, food prep, serving, table-clearing, and dishwashing is attractive and something we like to experience sometimes. It was our wedding anniversary and I'll be damned if either of us has to cook and clean on our wedding anniversary.
