SeattleUte has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Default Homecooking cheats your kids

Take them to fine restaurants where they develop sophisticated and diverse tastes, learn table manners, develope upscale social acquaintances, learn to read a wine list, you can focus on them rather than being harried with fixing meals and cleaning up, and you can select healthy foods for them. Homecooking is evil.

If you don't go out to eat its because you believe that public eating is doomed. You also are racist.

I eat at Denny's quite often. It's good to know that I'm not a racist.

Good advice. I know that people at fine restaurants typically enjoy having a 6-year-old and a 2-year-old sitting at the table next to them. I will also have my son read and order off of the wine menu. He looks pretty old for 6, so hopefully the waiter won't try and card him.

My kids deal directly with the sommelier. I cant be bothered to smell the cork and test the bouquet.

This is the most idiotic thing you have ever posted, even if you might be trolling. What if their children's mother not only can cook but really enjoys cooking. Not to mention her favorite cook book is in French.

Wine list. It's called a wine list.

The wine menu is laminated and has daily specials.
