Eating out once in a while does not hurt your savings but, if you make it a habit, it might show badly on your savings by draining them. Not many people understand that when one decides to eat out, he or she ends up paying more than the food cost. When you go to a restaurant and order a dish, you obviously pay the price listed for the dish but, this price comprises of several other elements than just food.
The price that you see includes price of the food and also to a large extent the cost of ambience that is incurred to make your dining experience comfortable. Ambience includes, cost of air conditioning, cutlery, general maintenance of the restaurant and so on. The price of preparing the food is not included in the price of the ingredients used; it is treated as a separate entity.
