I have never been to a restaurant for Christmas.  We always spend holidays with my best friend and her family.  Thanksgiving was at her house, Christmas will be at mine.

No.   Christmas has always been family time and we would get together to eat Christmas Dinner.  I love to cook and watch people enjoy food.

I usually cook for Christmas. I did not cook over Thanksgiving. Pretty much have everything to cook this holiday except for a couple items.

We have always had party food on Christmas Eve and then my mom used to make lasagne for Christmas day and a lot of family would come over.  Now there is just my two sons and I and it is getting hard to keep up the traditions because it always ends up being too much food for just us but we will still do it because it is our tradition.

No we have a family dinner, but some people would rather go out to dinner, less hassle.

No, not on Christmas.....but on Thanksgiving, both Chinese restaurants are open. Bet they would be on Christmas too.

I have worked two to three jobs all of my life. Going through High school and College better wages were always offered to those that worked on Holidays. Sadly this caused Holidays to be somewhat less special to me. My inner Scrooge sometimes surfaces. I love getting together for holidays but I see so much stress and waste. I worked at a restaurant for a lot of Holidays and eating out can bring the worst out in people. Mother's day was the worst. People were picky, grumpy and seemed in a rush to get mom home so that they could say how they had fulfilled their duties as family members (somewhat hypocritical). Going out to eat at Christmas/New Years eve gets you the same amount of food for twice the price and that is usually forty times what it would cost to simply make it at home and enjoy the warmth and glow of an uncrowded household.

We have never gone out on Christmas, but our traditions seem to change every year. Our family(my brothers, sister, along with their spouses and kids and grand kids) have already had our get together. On Christmas day my son and his wife and grandson and my parents will come to my house for Christmas breakfast. Unfortunately my daughter is going to Europe for the holidays so she won't be here for the first time for Christmas.
Then we will probably just snack and eat regular food the rest of the day, but no going out on Christmas for us.

I'm always at my in-laws on Christmas day. They get catered food.
