I prefer homemade food, and it's very rare we order food or go to the restaurant to have lunch or dinner. Even my kids prefer homemade food only. What about you? How frequently do you go to the restaurants?
If it's snacks like cake, meat pie, biscuits and the likes then yes, i often buy this sometimes but when it comes to actual food, i hardly do this. I often prefer cooking myself. The only time i buy cooked outside is if I can't cook that food in particular or am not at home, which is also rare cause i would rather buy snacks.
I always eat outside at my favorite fast food center with some of my colleagues and sometimes with some students. Every weekend, my family and I dine outside our home, at our favorite fast food center, Jollibee.
These days I try avoid outside food because the one I had last make me sick in the stomach. But to be honest, I eat out sometimes. Like if I’m tired or I don't have enough strength, I just buy rice and stew from a local restaurant near my street. Their food is always delicious, but I don't do it too often again, maybe like twice a week. Cooking at home is still the safest, but sometimes.
Yes, cooking at home is the best because of the hygiene and the lower quality of the material they use. I also try to eat cooked food at home only, except when my wife is sick or she is busy with something else.
