Eating out or cooking at home :)

In modern lifestyle, although many people prefer to eat out such as at food stands or restaurants, I prefer to cook at home. The main reason is I can be myself and relax when I cook something; moreover I can eat whenever and whatever I want by my own taste with fresh ingredients. And the last one is cooking at home can help you saving some money because it’s cheaper than eating out.

First of all, cooking at home helps me relax. In the past, I couldn’t cook anything because my mom did everything for me at home. One day, my life changed to another page when I had to leave my country for studying abroad and began living alone. I had to do everything by myself, and of course cooking was included in. I couldn’t cook well as first but the more I try to cook something the more interesting I can feel in every dish. I feel happy when I can cook some delicious dishes and sometimes laughed at myself if the taste becomes strange and doesn’t become as thing as I want to make, I find out myself in them. And, whatever my food becomes, they’re all my results of labor and I can proud of them, I feel very comfortable when cooking at home.

Also, the more I cook the more dishes I can cook, so that I can eat everything whenever I want by my own unique taste with the freshest ingredients. If you go to restaurants and choose something to eat, they’re maybe delicious but their taste is not yours. All food is made by a standard taste in order everyone can eat them, so that they will feel same with each other about all dishes which are easily found in many restaurants. Although, if you can find a restaurant which has your favorite dishes with their unique taste, it doesn’t mean that you can eat them whenever you want. It’s not convenient if you live far away from that restaurant or suddenly you want to eat something at the midnight. Besides, to reduce costs and increase profits, someone uses old and bad ingredients to make dishes. It’s really very dangerous not only for your health but sometimes also for your life.    

Finally, you can believe or not, but cooking at home can help you save some money. The more delicious food you want to eat the more expensive you have to pay for them when you eat out. In contrast, when you cook at home, you can choose ingredients with possible prices. If you’re lucky, you can find lot of good things at any bargain market or at a fair market at any supermarkets with an unbelievable cheapness prices. And for myself, I don’t want to pay money for anything that I can make, and meals are one of those things.

In summary, people are getting busier and busier with their works, relationships, etc.… in modern lifestyle and lot of them are losing habit of cooking at home. But with me, cooking at home is not only a habit but also a hobby and I prefer to cook at home than to eat out at any restaurant.

  • Dear Raya, washing dishes is really a big problem but there is also a machine called dish washer ;). Have a nice day.
  • Thanks for comments, my friends.I get used to my mom's dishes at home since I was a child, maybe it's the reason why I prefer eating and cooking at home. It's a habit and I don't eat out as usual as others and I rarely buy any dishes which are made at any restaurant or convenience store.

    To Noaslpls: Each restaurant has its breakfast or lunch set, I think it's really convenient for busy people.

  • I only cook during the weekend. So during the weekdays, I have my breakfast and lunch at various restaurants near to my office. I seldom eat anything for dinner. Yeah, even though my cooking may not the restaurant's quality, but if during the weekends, I prefer to eat at home.
