MarcO Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 I imagine some people find the idea depressing, others may keep it their little secret, but I think there's something really satisfying about taking yourself out for a bite every now and then. I get to combine two of my favorite pastimes - peoplewatching and eating - or maybe just settle in with a book or a newspaper section. This Globe & Mail article from the weekend got me thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phorbesie Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 i don't mind eating alone at all either. sometimes it's best for people not to see how much sushi i eat speaking of...found a new sushi place last week when my usual was closed. Lapointe in the market (ate downstairs but sushi bar is upstairs). ridiculous amount of fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ol'Hickster Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Yea I agree it is nice to just treat yourself to a nice night of good food and people watching ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybone Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 On a related note- I really enjoy cooking for myself and dining alone. My wife does not like everything I enjoy, so it's fun to indulge myself every now and then. For example, when the wife is away, I open a bottle of red (she drinks white only), crank some tunes and spend a couple hours preparing lamb. Eating the meal is truly only half the fun.When I used to work nights at a restaurant I enjoyed dining out alone. I would usually treat myself and enjoy a real nice meal at around 2pm at least once a week. Reading a book on a bistro patio on a nice spring afternoon is a sweet indulgance.
