Here in the villages most restaurants ask (seperate checks)
Answer,Yes Her and I,,,,,him and her,,,,,that takes the pressure off all concerned on who will pay,and possibly help enjoy your meal more.
If going out with another couple, and he insists on paying because he might owe you a favor or two, example,,, picked you up for golf the last 4 times or helped you home after your cart ran out of juice,then by all means let him pick up the tab if he insists,chances are he really wanted to pick it up,and every one will feel comfortable with that.
