We rarely do. If we do, it's usually very exciting for me. But normally if we got so much food I just wouldn't be able to finish my meal.
-
We do. We split everything so we usually finish the meal.
-
@Leialou: That's a good idea! I love sharing meals because then you can get lots of things and try everything. The only problem is I'm super picky so I rarely want what hubby does. And I can't have chocolate so nobody wants to share dessert with me.
-
most of the time. sometimes we get our own desserts
we always have room for dessert!
-
We rarely have room for dessert at the restaurant so we usually have a lot of dessert items at home!
-
Sometimes with appetizers and fairly often with dessert. Whenever we do, though, we always share them. I actually rarely finish my entrees because I always want dessert.
-
Not usually, but it does really depend on the place. For example, if we are going to Cheesecake Factory we ALWAYS share the tiramisu cheesecake, even if we are full and it has to make the 1.5 hour trip home with us.
-
We usually split an appetizer, or I'll get a salad to start. Dh almost ALWAYS gets dessert--he's the first person I met who always looks at the dessert menu and then orders something.
-
We like to go to smaller plate places so we can have more courses
so ideally - an appetizer, salad, main and split some dessert.
I do almost always like to get a salad, and then my main course. -
@hilsy85: Do you not get dessert with him? I don't know if I could handle watching someone eat dessert all the time and not eat it too! Although hubby did that last night and I just had a bite of his key lime pie. Yum!
-
We almost always order appetizers, but have no room left for dessert.
-
We never order dessert but once in a while the hubs and I will share an app.
-
Apps and dessert are my two favorite parts of the meal!! That's why I love The Melting Pot-- the cheese and chocolate fondues are the best parts of the meal. We actually split an individual entree to make sure we have room for both app and dessert.
At regular restaurants if we're super hungry we'll share an app and share a dessert. Sometimes if a dessert looks really good but we're too full, we'll get it to go and eat it at home on the couch. That almost always happens at The Cheesecake factory
-
I'd say 50% of the time we split an App, but dessert is rare. Only if something looks SUPER good, or I'm having a real craving for something sweet.
-
@artbee: ill usually split with him, or just have a bite. I'm not a huge dessert person I guess!
-
We always get an appetizer (or salad or soup). Since being pregnant, we always order a dessert too : )
-
We'll get apps with a bigger group, but rarely when it's just the two of us. Dessert we will get if it's a special occasion or something looks amazing, and if we still have room after dinner!
-
Almost always an appetizer, half the time we split a dessert....although we haven't gone out alone for a decent dinner in ages, so I have no idea what I am talking about!
-
We rarely get an appetizer or a dessert. Especially now that I'm pregnant... Baby has significantly reduced how much will fit in my stomach in one sitting!
-
We'll usually share an appetizer, get salad, order one entree (share) and then MAYBE order dessert.
-
I LOVE appetizers so we usually always get dip or egg rolls or something to munch on. I also love dessert, but I'm usually too full at the end of the meal so we will eat something at home if the sweet urge comes along.
-
@tina: Those are my two favorite pars of The Melting Pot too!! When I go with friends we usually only do a cheese and chocolate and skip the meat (not the healthiest but so good!)
-
@jessiejo17: Every time we go we're tempted to get 2 cheese fondues and skip the entree!!! But I'm too afraid to for some reason. Haha. Instead we get one individual entree and cut up all the meats as soon as they get to us. Oh, I also love all the sauces that come with the meats. I love apps, desserts, and sauces!!!!
Oh man I REALLY want to go again!!!
-
@tina: HAHA now I'm craving it, and the closest one is 3 hours away now. They closed the one that we always went too.
-
we typically get appetizers and desserts when we go to a really nice restaurant - usually cuz we're there to celebrate or something so we splurge.
but we don't usually get appetizers, just our meals.... i'll get dessert if i see something that sounds tasty. i almost always have room for dessert.
-
We usually share an app, and sometimes share an entree. I'd order dessert every time if it was up to me, but DH doesn't like sweets and I don't need to order a whole dessert b/c I'll eat the whole thing. So, we never order it.
-
When I have dinner with my girlfriends, we always get apps and dessert because we share everything. With my husband, we hardly ever get apps or dessert. We just go straight to the main course.
-
My husband and I almost always get an appetizer but we rarely get dessert unless there's something we know we absolutely love! With friends, we usually share everything anyway and get everything
-
We do about 1/2 the time, we usually share an app and a dessert when we get them. It depends on where we are going though!
-
Occasionally we get an appetizer, but the restaurant we like does unlimited garlic bread, soup/salad, and then your entree. So We never get dessert. Usually we get the app if we think that we will be waiting awhile or I am extra hungry.
-
If we go out with friends then we are more likely to get an appetizer and split it among the table. If not, we usually don't get an appetizer (or dessert) unless it's a special occasion.
-
We don't, mostly because we are both cheapskates!
-
Almost never, the dinner portions are usually so big we don't need or want them. We are also trying to watch calories and expenses. Sometimes if I am dying for an appetizer I will just make it my meal.
-
We never get appetizers or dessert unless in a large group. We take home leftovers with just the entree and don't need the extra food or to spend the extra money.
-
We usually just have mains and sometimes will split a dessert. There has to be something good on the dessert menu for us to order it though.
-
Appetizers: Fried Calamari, Mozzarella sticks or Spinach Artichoke Dip
Dessert: I'm usually too full to get Dessert. I only get it if it's free with the meal (like a coupon or a meal deal), creme brulee, fruit pie, ice cream, sherbert, taramisu (sp?).
we always have room for dessert!
so ideally - an appetizer, salad, main and split some dessert.
