Food thread, that is hopefully, benign.
When eating, do you often eat the same things, or., order the same dish (es) if eating out, or ordering in?
When I was younger, and my grandparents lived in FL, back when I was skinny as a rail, and didn't give a rip about food, I always noticed that my maternal grandfather would go to the same two or three places to eat, and usually order the same things, whether it was breakfast, lunch, or dinner that I went to with him. I think I may have inherited his eating habits, to a degree.
I eat Chinese food about twice a week. (Which I figure is okay, since I don't eat the same quantities as I used to at the buffets in Lancaster). I order from a call in place across the street from my apartment. When they hear my voice, they know exactly where I live, and what I want. The chicken and broc, with brown rice, wonton soup, and sometimes, an egg roll. I've had other dishes from them, but find their chicken and garlic sauce, a dish I love, too spicy.
Similar situation when I go to the place Maria works. I usually eat a burger, salad, fries, cokes, and teas.
Once a week, I have a bagel and lox from the bagel place across the st from my apt. When he sees me enter the store, he starts making my sandwich.
When I'm with friends, or family, at different eating places, I will switch off. Usually when we go to my father's favorite fancy Chinese place in Manhattan, Shun Lee Palace, I let him order two dishes, and we split it. I'm not a fan of Chinese beef, but will eat most chicken or seafood dishes.
My ex best friend used to tease me about this. He used to like to go to many different places, and order different things.
If I go to an Italian place, (Forest Hills has Pizzeria Uno, which can be pricey, so I don't go often) I usually get a chicken parm, ceaser salad, and pasta.
I think I inherited my grandfather's eating habits. I eat most of the main foods. (American, Italian, Chinese, Japanese) I seem to just like a lot of the same dishes.
Does anyone else have these eating habits?
