When you go out to eat, how do you pick where to go?

'tis been awhile since I've answered one of these, so here goes.

I'm a meatatarian and don't eat fish; d only eats organic meat. If we're in a large enough group, we'll often try to go some place where we can dine family style and she can gets some fish dishes and I can eat meat -- its pretty hard to find an organic meat restaurant. If its a smaller group and its still family style then it probably means we have to go somewhere where there are decent. If its just me and d we have to choose a place that meets both of our requirements and compromise. For example, Chipotle's burritos aren't nearly as good as our local joints, but they serve organic meat; Maruichi has non-pork Japanese noodle dishes whereas Ryowa doesn't (until very recently); sushi restaurants are okay as long as they have items other than chicken teriyaki on the menu.

This is why we usually cook at home :)
