The growth of eating out habits is influenced by several factors; the good economic conditions in the last ten years, hectic lifestyles, limited time for preparing food and the increasing interest in cuisine brought about by the celebrity chef phenomenon and innovation by caterers (e.g. more variety of choice of food) and more tempting to eat out because of the increasing growth of new eating outlets built in shopping centers, high streets and leisure venues e.g. PVR, sports stadiums. This study examines the eating out behaviour of people in NCR region. The focus is on how many times do they prefer to eat out, type of food prefer, eating out habits and prefer eating outlets.
