Just wondering how many times a week does the average villager dine out?

I've told 15 times is not uncommon.

We only dine , evening only once or twice/week

[l2ridehd]

If I include lunch after golf it's at least 7 or 8. But only a couple or three dinners out.

[NYGUY]

About 3 times a week between lunch and dinner.

[graciegirl]

Less all of the time. Once, maybe twice.

[Taltarzac725]

Does that include Subway, Beef O'Brady's, Publix Deli, or NYPD Pizzaria?

Two to three if these. Only when company is visiting if you mean sit down dinners or lunches.

I mean sit down dinners, not grazing

Next statement is for the girls--when your significant other retired and you were a stay @ home house maker, guess you still are working-you didn't get to retire

unless you trained him right

Whether lunch or dinner, we usually dine out only once a week. Not that I wouldn't go out more often.

That is the strangest thing. My dear husband sneakily has taken over many of the tasks I considered mine, with the exception of cooking. I never, ever minded cooking, probably because I have such pleasant folks at my table, who are non critical and not at all demanding.

I retired when Fireboy retired. I always worked outside the home.
Occasionally I use my crock-pot, but rarely. My cooking days are over.
We go out for dinner or pick up food most nights.

Twice per week.

[starflyte1]

7-12 times. I would mostly say I eat out, not dine, though I do go to Lopez and Palmer occasionally (once a week).

[OpusX1]

It all depends. Sometimes we eat home for weeks. Than we will eat out maybe 5 times in a row.
We will be going on a 15 day cruise so when we get back we will be eating at home for a month or so, just depends on what we feel like, no real rhyme or reason for us.

Dining out? We do breakfast once or twice a week, Perkins, Evans or Pan-era. We do lunch or dinner maybe once or once in two weeks. Trying to lose weight, dining out will not do it, no way. Or we go to Sonny's and get a take out package of their good ribs. Yep, we tried Oakwood, it is OK but for us, Sonny's is better. We gave up on Too Jays, Johnny Rockets and Evans Prairie, just does not work for us.
The Edgewater lunch salads are very good. My wife and her lady friends do like A. Palmer for lunch. The GREAT
Perkins $6 Ham and Egger is really the best breakfast we have found. But we both like to cook so we can do very well at home unless there is another reason to go with friends etc. Our Chowders, Omelettes, Spaghetti, Steak, Soups, Burritos and Tacos in our own kitchen, CANNOT BE DUPLICATED EATING OUT. We have friends who eat out EVERY DAY, ALL MEALS.

Thanks for listening,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Calorie Bill.

Are your friends who eat out every day all 3 meals in healthy physical shape--??

rarely eat out. We compliment one another and have always appreciated the fact that each of us requires low maintenance. I cook breakfast She cooks dinner. I grille. she washes clothes because she doesn't trust me with bleach
