In large part I agree with you. Especially in SF, the overwhelming are mediocre and over priced. I truly enjoy restaurants more when I'm traveling and eating at a place that might have one or two items on a chalkboard as what they're serving that day to the locals. More and more I find 'fine dining' as total flame and as my cooking skills evolve I realize I can cook the majority of it myself with not too much effort (plus, I find it fun).

No, it's more that when I'm traveling I have a genuine need to eat at a restaurant. I see that as the classic purpose for it, and thus I don't mind going to one. I'd prefer to go to a reputable "mom and pop" that has a simplified menu because it's more realistic to get a quality dish that way versus the euro version of a Cheesecake factory w/ the Sysco catalog as a menu.

There's too many restaurants. Dare I say, there's a bubble?

The rise of healthy cooking movements, the proliferation of cooking programs on TV and the Internet, the rising cost of labor - all these signs point to a decline in the restaurant industry. It's not hard to make banging food at home, it's better for you and it's better for family.

Restaurants are booming because more people are single for longer periods of their lives.

Cooking daily makes much more sense when you have a family

There are definitely too many restaurants with owners either being corporate groups or individuals trying to get rich off of it (lol @ that idea).

You still, on occasion, can find places that are husband and wife / legit 'family' restaurants where their focus is just to make an honest living. That just happens to be more common overseas because the social welfare/healthcare system tends to foster small operations like that.

I disliked SF for many reasons but rarelh waited in line anywhere Sunday-Thursday. Even shitty places are packed on weekends but that's true of mfh etc as well, it's true of any dense city here (which in America mostly contain people in their 20s-early 30s without kids who don't cook)

The burger thing is what kills me. I can buy a single brioche bun at Whole Foods, ask the butcher for 1/2 pound of 20% fat ground beef, and fucking do a "gourmet" burger perfect for under $5 / 20 min. You want 3 layers of super thin patties, I can do that as well, just watched how the grill dude did it at Steak and Shake and I became 180 with that technique. Some stuff is just too brain dead simple to pay for, burgers are one of them.

agreed. a fucking moron can cook a hamburger. just how you like it. cook two! it costs nothing. once you realize the flavor is the fat and the more delicious beef costs nothing it kills paying other people to make you hamburgers.
