That does rather depend on the company...

Happily... Nov 21, 2025

But it depends on the company. If dining with my grandchildren, I’m sure they will feel very unhappy and restless…

Wouldn't matter Nov 21, 2025

I used to go to restaurants by myself. One way of wasting money that makes no sense. Don't do it anymore. And if I have company, it will be such that no one will have their head in their smartphone because we'll have interesting things to talk about. Any other company will not have me out for dinner

As a custom, I eat with a fork and a knife, and phones don't cut it.
