Today I learned 2 people dropping 80 bucks not including drinks or tip on a meal makes you a cheap jamoke. Glad I know how to cook .

Yeah I love going out to eat but damn it is expensive. It's getting harder and harder to justify the price

I did the foodie thing in my 20s and 30s racked up 40k in credit card debt just smoking drinking eating good and partying. I don’t think I ever had 100 dollar tab with just food and no booze though .Had a kid and had to stop the Yolo life, learned to cook and only go out once or twice a month now. Sometimes I wish I put that money towards the principal of my house instead but I can’t say I didn’t have a good time.

where I work generally each person spends about 70-85 a person, so it’s a significantly diminished bill. And that’s the case for most of them. If you don’t care for the economics of the restaurant industry, which have been fairly static for the past ten years adjusting for inflation, do everyone involved a favor and stay home.

I don’t need to stay home just because some obnoxious person on Reddit told me to because I have dozens of places to get a great meal for a quarter of that price.

Oh yes, "very static" when you don't account for the "supply chain issues" raising the price on literally everything during the pandemic, and then staying that high.
I know there were actually some issues, but not enough to double the price of chicken or raise menu prices 30% across the board
