Asking the question as it seems to be a recurrent issue among finance-aware people.

Also if people have tips to save money on eating out or cooking, feel free to share!

My fiance and I eat out about once a week, and we often choose local places where we know we'll get 4 meals off of a $15 platter of food. It's certainly not as cheap as cooking at home, but sometimes you want a giant pile of orange chicken, and not the bother of prep/cleanup.

YES. I leave anything deep fried to the pros and their kitchens for cleanup.
