Yesterday was my wife's bday and we took her side of the family out for dinner.Older chinese generation hates to spend more than $10/person while eating out. They expect a meal for a king for less than $10.
They just bitch and complain bitch and complain til you, and your wife will no longer have a appitie for any food.
Couple of years ago we took her family out for All You Can Eat Hot Pot. For $15 per person I personally think it's a great deal. Don't hafta wash the veggies and prep all the food and the best part is at the end you do not need to clean up. No dishes to wash no table you hafta worry about, no garbage to worry about.
But though out the whole night all we heard was...15 BUCKS?? Let's see 15 bucks x 5 people that $75!!! For 75 bucks we can buy lots of food for the week!
That's all we heard was whining and complaining. I took my dad out to White Spot once and he bitch and complained on how expensive the $8 burger was.
My cousin is having a wedding at the 4 Seasons Hotel...I guessing a four course high class meal with superb service...I told her that my wife would love to come and would really enjoy the meal...but the old folks will complain...
Word to the old...If you want your kids to take you out to eat more often...STOP BITCHING and just ENJOY THE FOOD!!! If you're bitter and wonder why your kids do not come and visit...think about it first...

happy bday to ur wife!
i guess if some old folks bitch about spending a lot for food, then just buy them a $1 meal from mcdonalds next time...
I have relatives who consider Taco Bell drive thru their gourmet meal. No other restaurants are approved in the budget. All 'bout pinchin' pennies all day.
