As I love to cook and and my friends and family insist upon it.
My rating standards for restaurants are very simple.
- Could I make it (as good or) better at home?
- Would I make it (as good or) better at home?
If I go out to socialize, I usually pay more attention to the friends I'm with than the food I'm eating.
Most restaurants are not very creative and if I spend time on the 2 points above, I am disappointed.
