Quote:I have to both laugh at and agree with this.

 

I had a fine dining experience one time a long time ago (don't even remember the name) and the plates were so tiny, they were like a samples, and the bill was OVER twice what a good dinner should be.

 

When they say you are paying for the experience and atmosphere, they are right, because no way should that little food cost that much.

 

It's no wonder a lot of people that dine at fine dining places like that are skinny, because it would cost $200 or more to fill up a big person, just 1 big person.

 

It's all a state of mind.. People go to those ritzy places because they have a need to feel superior, to have the best and freshest.. Let them pay for it haha

 

I'm one of those more "down to earth" types.. I can have fun anywhere I go, whether I'm drinking a glass of wine from a "fine establishment such as Olive Garden" or a small plastic fish tank filled with coconut rum and little umbrellas.. 

 

You don't go to the party, you create it anywhere you go..
