My feelings are if you ' re at a restaurant and basing what you order off the prices of the items on the menu then you shouldn ' t be dining out at that restaurant . Restaurants are meant to be enjoyed . Celebrating time with friends and family over good food . You shouldn ' t be stressing about what to order because of price . If you go out to a restaurant with people you love or even by yourself , go there and enjoy yourselfyourselves ! I understand not everyone has enough money to not not be price conscious but just go to an overall cheaper restaurant . Don ' t go out to a fancy steakhouse and feel forced to order the cheeseburger or chicken sandwich because the steaks are too much . If you go to a steakhouse , get a bomb fucking steak and enjoy every second of if . If you can ' t do that then go to a cheaper restaurant !
