Food and Restaurant –answer

I really hate fast food. I prefer to go to a good restaurant that serves everything, including the dessert, using the best ingredients. Sometimes, I like to order something that I have tried at home. First, I look up the recipe in the cookbook and then I cook the dish. Next, I go to the restaurant, and when the wait person comes to my table I ask for the menu and order what I have already cooked at home! Sometimes, I like to go out for a cocktail. You can have a drink in either a bar or a lounge, which are usually nicer. At the end of the evening, it's time to ask for the bill and, usually, if the service has been good, it's a good idea to leave a 15%-20% tip.
