Last time I dined out, we noticed the smaller portions (mostly cutting out the potatoes or rice that always used to be served under each entree). What caused us to notice it? We had room for dessert afterward! (And yes, the restaurant made more money from us that way, too.)
But when I spend a lot of money on a meal, and I’m considering stopping at a drive-through on my way home… it ruins the experience. I never go back because it feels like being scammed.
I wonder why expensive restaurants tend to have small portions? High quality ingredients are expensive, but that can’t be the whole reason.
