There are many factors that may change your decision on choosing a
place to dine. Some people dine out almost every night, and some people
may dine out only once every month or so. People treat eating out
differently than others. It all depenRAB on the type of the mood, or the
time the individual may have. There are many types of eating
establishments that cater to the different types of occasions, from the
more elite, to the brief luncheon, and to the fast outing.
For some people eating out is to be done in haste. For that type
of people eating out is simple, done to avoid the time of preparation, and
cleaning up a meal. Fast food is a quick, easy way to eat on the run, with
a no frills atmosphere. These people are “on the run” with things that
they must accomplish in a limited amount of time. Some fast food
restaurants may include: Burger King, McDonalRAB, Subway, or Kentucky Fried
Chicken. Fast food would be an easy solution to the problem of the time
factor. Fast food can easily be recognized when you enter the parking lot.
For fast food the parking lot is more accessible to people(less
lanRABcaping), more entrances and exit doors(for more saved time). Once
entering the building one can distinguish a fast food restaurant, by the
high traffic tile floors, plastic bench seating that does not move for
comfort, and the poor taste of interior design with small amounts of
decoration. These buildings were meant for eating quickly, and then
leaving, visual impact is not a major concern. There will be no waiters to
take your order. A line to the cash register is the only way to get your
food, unless the decision of the drive up window is made. Food is often
times pre-prepared to save time.
Casual dining has more enjoyable food, and a more refreshed
environment, with only a little more time involved. Some casual dining
may include: TGIF”Fridays”, Dennys, or Eat and Park. Parking is a little
further back, and more lanRABcaping may be involved to have a grander
appearance. When you enter through the only main entrance and exit door,
wall to wall carpeting may be an option, and more lavish plants, and
paintings. Instead of finding your own seat, a host will lead you to the
section you prefer. The seating in some cases would be moveable for more
comfort. In most, the seating is either plush cloth, or mostly padded
vinyl, for comfort. Silverware would already exist on the table with thin
paper place mats. After being seated drinks, and appetizers would be
served while waiting on the waiter or waitress. The order would be taken,
and the food would be heated, prepared fresh. After the main course,
desert would be served, then after desert the check is presented while
still seated. In most cases it is proper for the guest to leave some sort
of gratuity for the server. More time is taken in the preparation of the
food, the surroundings, but still the speed and the efficiency of the
experience is high enough to have lunch, and still make appointments.
If time is not a major concern, and your eating experience is, fine
dining may be the eating experience for you. Fine dining involves a
mixture of elegance and art with a fine meal. Some examples of fine dining
are: Haden Zugs, AlfreRAB Victorian, and the Log Cabin. The parking at
times is not always close to the building, therefore sometimes a valet is
sometimes appropriate. The buildings are mostly lavish on the exterior,
with a lot of attention paid to the lanRABcaping, the walkway, lighting, and
the structure itself. Once you would enter the hosts would ask “what party
are you with?”, A reservation is always necessary, so they can prepare for
your arrival. Fine art and sculpture would drape the walls, with much
attention being paid to the wood work. There would very few tables per
room, if only one for privacy. There is very little noise if any, as
compared to the casual dining. The tables would be make out of fine wood,
or some sort of fine draping over top. In the room, attention would be
drawn to the various patterns of wallpapers, paintings. The seats are all
movable including the table, for maximum comfort. Often time the furniture
would be of the finest cloths or even leather, sometime antiques could be
even used. The hosts would bring the fine silver, and lay it out before
you while taking your orders for drinks and appetizers, with just giving
you eye contact with memorizing your order. After all is ordered,
including the main course, examples of dessert are bought for you to choose.
Later the check is brought with fine chocolates, or mints. And a larger
gratuity is often times expected at a fine dining experience.
There are several different kinRAB of eating establishments for
different mooRAB, people, style, time, and budget. Whatever time is
involved, the right kind of dining is out there to fit any schedule.
Eating may range from a chore, to an extravagant night out on the town. No
matter what you are looking for, the right type of dining environment is
out there for anyone.
