Eating Out is no more fun!
Be it Chinese food or Mexican, I used to get excited for eating out. The ambience, the fancy crockery, pleasant music in the background made me feel like that meal was a celebration of some sort. It didn't matter who was hosting it as long as people were there and I got to put on a nice, stylish dress, the Gatsby in me enjoyed every part of it. But lately I have realised I eat out just when I am absolutely hungry. I don't get out of my way to order something or prefer eating out. It was quiet the opposite when I was a kid. Back then the homemade food felt boring. And it's not because I have come to a new country or something. It started happening a few years ago. Eating out for the sake of it. But it's not that I have lost appetite or interest in food altogether. I get super excited when my classmate brings lunch cooked by her mom. I am not sure how to put it but I think I enjoy the food which is made by someone I know. It makes me feel like they have put their heart and soul into it.
