Definition of undefined

The phrase "eat out" likely originated in the late 19th century, with its first recorded use in 1891. It describes the act of consuming a meal away from home, typically at a restaurant. The term reflects the shift in dining habits as restaurants became more accessible and popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The phrase "eat out" effectively captures this change, contrasting with the earlier practice of "eating in" at home.
