Little of both.  Love finding new, unique restaurants...then trying to replicate it at home.

I prefer both. But at the same time when you go out you may sometimes get tired of the same food, but at home you can cook up different things the way you like and also you never had before.

 Going out for dinner is good to do sometimes, but most nights I would prefer to stay home to eat dinner :thumbsup:

I prefer to stay at home, but do enjoy going out for a good meal once in a while.

 :wave: I like to do both! We make it a point to eat out once a week just so I can have a break from the kitchen. We usually go out on Sundays after church with some freinds. But it isn't always a given. Sometimes we might just grab a pizza to go and take that home. Curl up on the couch with a good movie and just chill. Those are my favorite. :wave:

I like to cook so I tend to eat at home mostly (it's cheaper too). But I sometimes like going out to a nice restaurant, esp. if I've got a craving for a food that I don't make very well (eg go to Red Lobster if I'm in the mood for some good crab legs). I also prefer going out to eat while on vacation... I like experiencing what the different cuisine is like around the country, esp. if an area is known for a certain type of food (eg Cajun food in New Orleans, BBQ in Texas or St. Louis, Southwest cuisine in Arizona, etc.)

I prefer staying in because I can make whatever I want and not have to worry about money/bad nutrition. I do like going out every once in a while, though.

Well, I'm very lucky that my husband is the cook in the family and a very good one at that.  We like to give him time off so we try to eat out a couple of times a week.

In these hard times as much as we enjoy going out it just does not seem feasible very often.We have two daughters who would go with as well,every now and then for a date night or as a treat is cool.

It depends on what kind of mood im in and who i'm dining with.  In general i'd rather do out---no dishes.

I guess I'd rather go out, but I'd also rather not get the bill :P I'm working extra hard on saving money, so we're eating out as seldom as possible. I have a few quick and easy recipes up my sleeve so that we can stay in but without too much work. Nachos, anyone??  :thumbsup:

Going out. I don't enjoy cooking to much, so its better when someone else does the cooking

I would rather stay home and cook as long as my guy cleans up afterwards.  :thumbsup:

I love going out for authentic Italian and Mexican, but staying home is nice too. So I refuse to commit to an answer, I like both!

Prefer staying in, since we're real particular about eating all organic, however we do go out once or twice a month to eat.

I enjoy cooking when a lot of put oeple come to eat but when I have o eat by myself I would prefer going out to eat.  I like going out to a sit down restarent and have a waitress wait on me and take my time to enjoy my meal.

 :( ahhhh sorry for your allergies, but isn't it nice when we get to just sit at the table and get served.....and best of all .... NO dishes to wash !

With the tough ecomonic times, there is nothing quite like eating in your own home.  Now another step up would be having a nice steak...Going out for dinner gets expensive all the time.  You can have the same meal at home for a fraction of the cost.

Definetly going out to eat! I hate to cook. Although my husband thinks I am a great cook for some reason. Lately, though we have been eating out at least once or twice a week. My husband and I for some reason haven't been able to get enough of this restaurant called The Rib Crib. They have awesome pork and I love the aroma in there as soon as I walk in the door. It makes me hungry right away!   ;D

I love to cook, so it's been fun to see how good of a meal I can make with what's in the cupboard. Sometimes we eat out, but it's usually unhealthy (fast food).

To the people who complain about having to wash dishes... how hard is it to put them in the dishwasher?  :P
