Do you prefer to eat out or at home?

Eating has become one of kinds of culture for centuries. Today people are interested in not only what and how they eat but also where they eat. Some people prefer to eat at food stands or restaurants. Other people like preparing and eating at home. In my opinion, I w-ould rather eat at home than at restaurants.

People want to eat at restaurants because of three reasons. Firstly, they will have a chance to enjoy a variety of food. Everyone has different favorite dishes and restaurants may satisfy all tastes of its customers. Secondly, sometimes people go to restaurants so that they have a private space to discuss something. Many people think that it is easier to do a business when they eat and negotiate at the same time. In fact, a number of negotiations take place successfully at restaurants. Thirdly, someone says that it takes a lot of time to cook at home. Therefore, they prefer to eat at food stands in order to save time.

However, many other people prefer to eat at home. This is because eating at home is much cheaper than eating at restaurants. Instead of spending money for expensive meals at a restaurant, people can prepare for a meal and save lots of money for other purposes. One friend of mine likes reading very much. She always cooks and eats at home to spend more money buying books. In addition, some people like cooking and they want to prepare for a meal by themselves. So as, they do not want to go out for a lunch or dinner at restaurants. Other people choose to eat at home just because they would like to spend time with their families. While having dinner at home, for example, they can share their happiness and troubles in jobs with their folks or even talk about a television program they like best.  

I think that whether people eat at a restaurant or at home, the most important thing is whether they feel comfortable or not. However, if I have to choose, I will eat at home because it is a way to save my money and above all, I can have a good time with my family.
