Just regular stuff

I will be honest, when we eat out, there are only a few restaurants that we patronize. Not that we're not adventurous but there are some restaurants, very popular ones too I might add, that we eat at once and never go back.

Take New York, New York and Delicious, for instance. They're always packed. We went there once, stood in line and waited like idiots. And the food is, shall I say, regular stuff that I cook at home all the time.

Their food may be a novelty to those who are unfamiliar with Western food so they can't tell how stuff is supposed to taste or if it's even authentic. So they're prepared to fork out big bucks to be seen dining at a Western restaurant.

Us? We want something different when we eat out, a new taste, a new twist to the same old, same old, not something that I can easily whip up at home. Well, the food at these places is everyday stuff to us - the pies, pastas, pizzas - and my kids say I make it much tastier. So there!
