Calculate the number of people and the amount of consumption first. Before going out to eat, you should first set a consumption amount according to the purpose and number of people to eat. Never, in order to satisfy your vanity, disregard your own economic strength, look good on your face, go home and worry about money, and then scrimp and save. For family gatherings, or gatherings of good friends, the atmosphere is very important, and what to eat is secondary. Therefore, you can choose a restaurant that you are familiar with. The consumption level is not high, but it is clean and hygienic, and the food is affordable to achieve the purpose of the party. Why not? If there are many guests invited, you should call ahead to reserve seats in case there are no seats in the restaurant you want to go to, and it is time-consuming and laborious to change places temporarily. When eating out at ordinary times, pay more attention to the approximate prices and quantities of various dishes in various restaurants and make a comparison, so that when it's your turn to treat, you will know where to eat and what to eat. Ordering according to the number of people and food intake makes people full and nothing is left. Now some people are generous to others, order a table of dishes, and finally can't finish the rest, and they don't pack it and take it home. This wasteful habit can be said to be a bad habit, and we must resolutely get rid of it.
Don't be confused by the fancy names when ordering. Some restaurants make great efforts in the name of dishes in order to impress the audience, which makes diners more and more confused when ordering: what is the content under the beautiful name of dishes? According to a survey by newspaper reporters, most restaurants have fancy names, at least half of which make it difficult for diners to know their real main ingredients and flavor types, and 70% of the names on some restaurants' menus are confusing. For example, "whisper"-do you know what this dish is? It turned out to be braised pig's ears tightly wrapped in wax pig's tongue. Although it is wonderful to remember this name, you will definitely be confused when you first hear the name of this dish. Another example is "burning white clouds"-actually boiling kidney flowers; "Dancing with two flowers"-a dish made of yellow flowers, fungus, tomatoes and tofu added to the hoof flower soup. Other dishes, such as "Two Dragons Playing with Beads", "Congratulations on Getting Rich" and "Double Happiness at the Gate", have various names, and beauty is beautiful, but they can't play their due role at all. Moreover, such dishes are expensive, and when they are served, you will find that they are just ordinary home-cooked dishes. Some dishes are on the big plate, but what you can really eat is the middle thing. The others are decorations, which can only be seen but not eaten. Even some dishes are cooked and I don't know what they are made of. Therefore, when you go out to eat and order, you should ask the waiter about the practice and weight of the dishes you don't understand, and don't wait until the dishes are served. Try to choose ordinary dishes or home-cooked dishes, so as to be aware of them and not spend money indiscriminately.
In addition, check the bill carefully when checking out to prevent the hotel from not explaining in advance and there will be various charges when checking out.
