Thought I'd revive this thread with a slight twist. The general conversation here seems to indicate that many of us are either improving or trying to cook new things that we hadn't bothered with before, thanks to the pandemic.

With that context, here's my follow up question. If the world went back to normal tomorrow, and assuming you had no virus concerns, would you now adjust how often you eat out vs. cook at home?

I'll start. While I'd certainly eat out a lot more than I have been, it would be because of business travel. For non-business meals, I'm pretty sure we would go out less often. I'd guess once per week for dinner, and occasionally a breakfast/brunch/lunch. It's not so much that we "discovered" home cooking, but we've kind of settled into a nice routine that we're enjoying. I think we'd focus our restaurant time on meals that were a little more special rather than just a burger and fries...things that are a little more complex and not economical to make at home for 2 people.
