Re: Trying New Local Eateries.

No, my husband and I do not have an interest in eating at any new local places, and many open and close here before we ever know about them.   

 

I prefer to cook my food at home, and would choose a peanut butter and jelly sandwich from my kitchen over a meal from any local restaurant, any day.

Yes, I love trying new places! Something tells me that eating out is about to become a lot more difficult for a while, so get out there while we can.

Re: Trying New Local Eateries.

There's a homemade Italian resturant on the other side of town I've been wanting to try every time I pass it.  It's been there for several years, and too far for dinner once we get home.  (DH will go out for an "event", that's it, since he's in his car so much).

I'm meeting a dear friend which I worked with 5 years,  She lives a good 40 minutes past this resturant, as do I in the OTHER direction, so it happens to be the half way for both of us!

 

I looked it up on Trip Advisor and it has FIVE stars!!!!  I can't wait!  Smiley Happy

We only eat at locally owned restaurants. I can't tell you the last time I ate at a franchise. We have so many terrific places to eat! Love supporting my own businesses.

Sorry you've never been to a good restaurant enough to branch out a bit. No way could I ever eat my food forever. My dh and I have always had Friday Night date night, for the past 46 years. We try new wonderful places and love to get out and experience new things. Remember, life is short...

Our town has one cafe. And it has been for sale for over a year.
