These restaurant tricks make you order more: behavioral expert shares details

Everyone has faced a situation where, when they came to a restaurant, they ordered something other than what they planned and in the wrong quantity, and as a result, did not understand why. But it's worth noting that this has a logical explanation!

Behavioral science expert James Picken explained Express how not to order a lot of food and drinks in restaurants even when you want to and what influences visitors in establishments the most.

What influences the desire of restaurant guests to order more:

1. A cozy place for 2-4 people

A place with a warm atmosphere and a feeling of relaxation and protection from prying eyes contributes to a greater consumption of food and drinks.

2. Dim light in the hall

According to the expert, this is what makes us spend more.

In the atmosphere of twilight, you are ready for a delicious meal.

Bright light, on the other hand, pushes you to be active and energizes you.

How not to order something you didn't plan:

1. Do not ask waiters about dishes from the menu that you do not plan to try.

2. Plan the amount of food and drink you want before you go to a restaurant or coffee shop, and follow your plans when you get there.

3. Try to sit in a place that is visible to many people as it has a psychological effect on a person. Thus, the desire to eat a lot of food or drinks will disappear.
