Eating Out

One of the things I miss doing during this pandemic is eating out. Gone are the days when I can just visit my favorite restaurant or hunt for new food spots. Medical researchers say that eating in restaurants - indoor with the AC on, of course without your mask - increases the possibility of you getting infected. There is no meal in the world worth that risk. So I resort to having food delivered at home but not all restaurants have food delivery. Anyway, here is a pic of the steamed bun and dimsum that I always order after my boxing training. The restaurant is conveniently located beside the gym so all the weight that I lose, I gain right back. Do you miss eating out?

I don't go out for dinner often but I miss having the choice taken away from me because of the virus. The only positive I can find from this pandemic is I'm saving a lot more money. Of course, I'd rather have a choice to save or not.

True a lot of things have been taken away from us by this pandemic. Hopefully, when the pandemic ends, everything goes back to normal.

@allen0187 Yes, it would be nice to have freedom of movement to go places again without worry.

That is what I do as well. I order and have it delivered at home or I call my order in advance and do a curb-side pick-up.

Not a fan of samgyupsal. Too much smoke. Buffets, I like.

I miss eating lots of food that I can't eat during this pandemic. Most of the time it's because of travel restriction. But I need to be really patient and comply.

Good to know that you are complying. I do not eat out. I just order in advance and pick it up or I have the food delivered here at home.

Here the restaurants are not opened only online delivery of the food is allowed. Yes that's good that you got the chance to dine in the restaurant but take care as you said it's risky.

I haven't dined in any restaurant since the pandemic started. This was an old photo. I do not want to risk getting infected by dining in a restaurant.

I miss eating out too. I think we will be able to do it again soon here. I love steamed buns and dim sum. I also used to training in martial arts and remember I used to like to get something to eat after a heavy workout.

Yup, carbo loading is common after working out.

I never stopped eating out, but what I’d do is go through the drive-thru then eat on the “table” in my car (I have a tray where I can set up my iPad or eat on it).

I do miss eating out but won't take the chance anytime soon. We're doing takeout or delivery

Same with me, take-out and delivery since the pandemic started.

The closest restaurant that delivers to me is at least 30 miles away. I am sure they will not deliver to me because I am too far away.
