In response to Caitlyn Croasdale:
Caitlyn posed the question "Do you pay more for food or atmosphere when you go out to eat?"

 I definitely pay for the food when dining out at a restaurant. I would not pay to have the atmosphere. I feel the purpose of restaurants are that of utility: you don't have to prepare the food or clean up after the fact with dishes that the food was both on and what it was cooked in. I don't devalue the good service and atmosphere and it is important to have those for enjoyable experience but I view it as less important to my overall satisfaction.
