At an expensive restaurant you're not paying for food, but for experience. Smaller portions let you eat more types of food and thus get more experience. If you want to pay for food, not experience, a grocery store is a better option.


In theory maybe, but in practice nobody is ordering multiple entrees at a high end restaurant. The restaurant might not even let a guest do that. It’s just less total food, not smaller portions of many dishes.


You can say that, but thats not how it actually works in practice. You get the same variety of food at expensive spots, just smaller portions. Perhaps an unusual selection, but no greater variety in the same meal.

And no, im still paying for the food. Fuck the experience. The experience of being at a restaurant ranges from obnoxious to mildly irritating and its unrelated to how nice the place is.
