Do you still eat out ?

[alex]

Saw a great Youtube video about this and I've been dying to try, only problem is I can't get a stone, yeast or low moisture cheese right now.

Of coarse use any toppings U want, beware not to burn the bottom, the first will always be a virgin trial, but couldnt be simpler, U have pizza in 15 minutes.

We managed to get a nice dinner from Crab Du Jour yesterday, but we got lucky. Their system crashed at 4 pm, right when everyone was starting to try to order Mother's Day dinner. They lost most of the orders even though the payments went through. The two lines outside the restaurant went around the place. They happen to bring out my order within 5 minutes of my arrival. I was very close to running to a grocery store for frozen something.

The few places open are often very overwhelmed even on a good day

We've been home about 7 weeks now and we've gotten take out/delivery about 7-8 times, so just about once per week. We've ordered pizza once, ordered from the restaurant I worked at a couple of times to help support them, done Arby's drive thru once, Hardees a couple times and my wife has gotten breakfast sandwiches a couple of times on the way home form her grocery shopping excursions on a couple of occasions. She is a banker and they are doing a split staff 2 weeks on/2 weeks off thing and the branch usually orders in for lunch as well when she is on (she starts her on two weeks again today), but I'm not counting that for our household activity. We mostly have been doing food prep here, as my wife likes to cook and tends to make things in large batches we can eat of off for 2-3 days at a clip (stews, soups, casseroles, etc.).

Never ordering pizza again as I learned how to make New York style pizza from scratch, since this all started. I’m getting pretty good at it too.

We tried to order in for Mother's Day but apparently so did my entire town, by 4pm we were down to a single choice, Pizza Hut. None of us can bear pizza any further so we had whatever was in the freezer. I have told my wife that she's getting a "Do-Over" mother's day this week.

We get curbside or drive-thru about once a week. But I'm not going to be going into a restaurant when they reopen (even at lower capacities) here later this month, for a while at least, when I know this has died down, and doesn't spike, which I figure it will.

Same here on all counts. We treat ourselves to pizza, Chinese, etc. usually once per week. Yesterday was Thai Grill for Mother's day. I just can't eat fast food anymore without regretting it later.

This is the longest in my adult life that I've gone without eating fast food. I haven't had any drive thru since March. I did get taco truck food when I found out they were set up about a mile from me... placed an order online and ran there, stood in line for 10 minutes, then got it and ran home. It wasn't very good, fortunately, so I haven't been tempted to order from them again.

I also realized a week or so ago that this is the longest I've gone in my adult life without touching cash. I deposited my paycheck on Friday, March 13 and the walking around money I took out is still in my wallet. I used to dump my pocket change into a milk jug on my nightstand every night. I haven't added to it since then. I pay for everything with a credit card now.

People in my area are starting to revolt against the PA stay-at-home orders, though. A big local diner opened up for eat-in service yesterday in defiance of the order and apparently was pretty packed. While I sympathize with wanting to get back to normal, I hope no one gets sick and dies because people want pancakes.

We just kind of happened to cut way back on fast food over the past year, but we've been doing takeout through the quarantine. We caught 50% off at Jersey Mikes, and we've done BOGO wings at BW3 a few times. Last night was chicken gyros. We've hit our Mexican place every other week...Chinese almost weekly...Raising Cane's occasionally when the drive through line wasn't around the store two times. Most places are masked up with distancing & lots of sanitizer available. We wipe down the containers with 151 vodka when we get the food home.

Come to think of it...I might just start a thread on that...

[Brown Bear]

No.

Other than grocery store, been home for eight weeks now like I’m supposed to.

Hope it’s over soon.

No fast food since the first week of March… I only half-trust a few of them to be clean and decent normally; that risk (to be ultra-clean/conscious now) just hasn't seemed worth it given the situation.

That said, we certainly have had a fair share of comfort and junk food on the home front. We both cook so no complaints, and I'm sure In-N-Out Burger will be waiting for me in the weeks ahead.

Almost every day!
I live alone, but I have my kids over 2-3 nights a week, and sleep over every other weekend.
That weekend usually starts off with PIZZA!
I do cook for them, but not too often for myself.

We've not had anything out since March 16th. No fast food or pick up or delivery including pizza. We pick up groceries at curbside and have had some Omaha Steak deliveries and that's it.

It's been a tough transition and my kids complain almost as much as I do

[thunderbolt]

we just do weekend lunch. Still most are closed to indoors even though our genius Gov opened up the state. Since the opening 2500 new cases too.
