On holidays (such as Easter, Mother's Day, etc.) are you likely to go out?
Would dining out entail a special restaurant offering a prix fixe or buffet or would a regular menu be more appealing? For me and mine, we've mixed and matched through the years but have had the greatest success with the buffet at Fung Lum's in Campbell, CA on those holidays that fall on Sundays. For special dinners (sans daughter-units), we don't choose a restaurant based on its menu... But that's because I tend to steer clear of prix fixe menus because I usually dislike one of the items being featured. My wife, OTOH, has had exceptional luck with them. Others?

For some holidays such as Thanksgiving, I could not imagine eating our family feast in a restaurant.
