Some people prefer to eat at restaurants while others prefer to prepare and eat at home. Which one do you prefer?

Restaurant business is flourishing like never before. While some people choose to go to restaurants, others prefer to spend time cooking and eating at home. Admittedly, I too like to eat out but occasionally and enjoy my meals at home daily. There is no comparison of the freshly home-cooked meal to restaurant food. For home-cooked meals, people can increase the nutrition values of food by handpicking fresh vegetables, good quality oil, and condiments. By contrast, food cooked in restaurants could affect people’s health as it is not sure of the quality of ingredients. For instance, in Ho Chi Minh city, young people often go to street restaurants despite knowing the fact that the hygiene is not guaranteed because foods in those street restaurants are affordable and tasty. However, many people find cooking as a stress busting activity because family members help each other with the daily cooking and spend quality time together. Obesity, which is one of the most common health problems, also emphasizes the importance of home-cooked food since the major cause of that is wrong eating habit, which can be changed by eating healthy and nutritious meals. On the contrary to healthy home-cooked foods restaurant foods are often fried with an enormous amount of oil and contain a lot of unsaturated fat As a result people who always eat unhealthy food are bound to suffer from various dangerous diseases such as heart attack and diabetes. Furthermore, dining out squanders a lot of money that can be saved and used for other purposes. In conclusion, home-cooked meal is not only healthy and nourishing but it also helps people to inculcate the habit of cooking, which is one of the best activities to relax and relieve stress
