  I have eaten alone a lot of times...
  I dont mind it...Infact I do enjoy it...
  Once somehow this topic came up and my sisters went beserk like it was some kind of weird thing to do...
  And I was left clueless...
  Then I realised its kind of weird thing to do...
  Not that I mind...
  
  But now atleast when I eat out I tell the waiter "I am not expecting anyone", otherwise it end up getting lousy service, cause they think I am waiting for someone...

  I have never tried it. I might some day, but I'm too much of a chicken right now.

  i travel for business and often eat alone then.
  
  it's one thing i really don't care for - i'd much prefer company.
  
  I haven't experienced anything like discrimination because i'm alone. In fact, I was in Golden Co last year at a Chart House and they gave me a really fantasic seat with a view...
  maybe it has to do with the restaurant?

  Maybe...it has to do with the restaurant.
  But I don't really care about it.
  
  Having a companion for lunch or dinner is great but don't know why I like eating out alone or otherwise I'd pack the food and eat it alone at home.

  I like to dine alone. Sometimes I treat myself after a bad day at work, by getting my favorite dish at the resturant across the street. I think it's nice to sit and simply enjoy your food and take in your surroundings. I think it's hard for some people to understand why you would chose to dine alone, because they gain something else from the experience.
  
  So you're not alone in dining alone. I think people always seem to assign bad connotations to "alone". It really shouldn't, sometimes there is more to gain by doing things solo.

  I often eat alone, both at home and in restaurants. I love it when I walk into a restaurant alone, and the hostess asks me "How many?" I've always wanted to ask... "How many do you see?"

  sure, all the time, in London that is. I use this site www.timeforone.com for their dining solo section and soon they'll cover NY too. Solo dining is a good way to close your day, in peace with some good food and allows you a little reflection. Or on the other hand you don't know who you'll end up talking to!
