Restaurants Why do you think people go to restaurants when they want to celebrate something? If it is a big party, like wedding or birthday with many guests - it's enough space there to hold it. Because if you live in apartments or even in a private house you probably don't have big enough room to place the dinner tables. If it's a private house you can place them outdoors of course but then you should rely on good weather, there should ne no annoying insects and other inconviences. You just can't be sure that everything will be as planned. When you've chosen restaurant as a place of your party you shouldn't calculate how much food it should be, how much drinks, what kind of food and drinks it should be, when to start preparations, what decoration should be done, maybe music, maybe something else. You probably even don't have time to make all those preparations. In a nutshell, people don't want to use their time to plan and prepare the party. It's so much easier to come to the restaurant and let them to care about those food-drinks problem. And if restaurant failed it's just the bad one, let's try another for the next party. But if you failed trying to hold it by yourself, you're the loser) Which are more popular in your country: fast food restaurants or traditional restaurants? Why do you think that is? I think traditional are more popular. Fast food often used when you have not enough time (as you think) to eat in a traditional one. When people want to have a meal quickly there are restaurants when food is cooked already, and just waiting for you to order :) There you will get your food in a one or two minutes as in the fast food, but more diverse and healthy (I suppose). But sometimes you want something harmful to eat, and if you don't have much willpower, you go to fastfood anyway (personally I love pizza) Some people say that food in an expensive restaurant is always better than food in a cheap restaurant - would you agree? Rather no. Visiting an expensive restaurant you can try something exotic and expensive that you couldn't in a cheap one. And there are usually better atmospere. Good furnishing, maybe pleasant music. But if you're ordering the same in expensive and cheap restaurant - you usually get the same food.
