When I was a child, I don’t recall visiting these places because they weren’t as advanced. We used to go to a restaurant for a meal occasionally. Our conversations were intimate; there were no distractions or social media.Every family member knew each other’s likes and dislikes, so ordering food was easy.

Today, food, sightseeing, and meaningful conversations are complex. As the weekend approaches, there is a lot of excitement, but choosing which restaurant to visit is tricky.
