Answer:
I prefer eating at restaurants and food stands over cooking and eating at home. Of course, making your food will most likely be less expensive and even healthier since you can choose the best ingredients and recipes for you. However, going out to eat offers benefits consider important.
Explanation:
First of all, I´m a bad cook. I´ve made my peace with the fact that no matter how much try I can never get a meal right. Either it burns or the taste is not as good as expected. So eating in a restaurant is my only chance to have a delicious meal.
Furthermore, going out for food offers an experience rather than just a meal. A restaurant with a cool environment or a nice view provides me the possibility to make a whole event out of a simple meal.
Finally, Going out for food gives me the chance to try dishes I don´t even know. Food from other countries or recipes that are too complicated for me to even try became available, something that would never happen if I didn´t go to a restaurant.
