$25 at Costco vs IKEA Food Court

The ultimate showdown of cheap eats after spending hundreds on bulk toilet paper and unassembled furniture. I spent $25 at both Costco and IKEA's food court to see which is the better value!

[@DerekMckean]

IKEA has more of a movie commissary or cafeteria feeling as opposed to a food court. Like food courts, they give you trays to place your food on and you pay a cashier once you grab everything. I know Costco doesn't offer trays. However, instead of you going to several stations and paying a cashier, you go directly to the cashier first when it comes to a food court. And food courts generally don't have items made to order. There are some exceptions, like Thai Go used to have made to order from the kitchen as opposite to stuff cooked earlier in the day. I generally use the word commissary for cafeterias whose main purpose is to serve employees of another company and is generally only for employees. For example, if Google had a cafeteria inside its headquarters, if call it a comissary. However according to Wiki and the dictionary, commissaries are only in jails and on the lots of movie studios. While that's definitely true, professional chefs may call any place where there is commercial food service equipment where food is stored and made inside that kitchen, it is a comissary. For example, most grocery stores have a comissary where q professional chef prepares food to go out to retail stores. Hence, my definition of comissary does not fit the culinary arts definition of comissary nor the dictionary. However, once again in my mind, if a cafeteria is private, I've always called it a comissary, but that's technically not correct. I guess it's because I see cafeterias and restaurants open to the general public. When a cafeteria is not open to the public, I see it as institutionalized like a hospital, a government agency, or a big corporation.

[@danmur2797]

I worked at IKEA, and here's my thoughts. You can't compare the IKEA restaurant (because it is a full restaurant) to the Costco food court because they're not comparable. Its comparing apples to oranges. A fairer comparison would be comparing the Costco Food court to IKEA's Bistro which, just like Costco, is near the exit after checkout. And IKEA Bistro also carries things like hot dogs and pizza, and soft serve. Overall I think the Costco Food court offers better quality food for value than IKEA's Bistro. That being said, I do appreciate the healthy and diverse full meals the IKEA restaurant offers very cheaply. If I lived closer to IKEA again, I would dine there more often when dining out, just because of how insanely cheap it is to get a healthy meal there like salmon, or vegetarian options, in addition to other animal proteins and full desserts. It would be interesting to see what Costco could do with full restaurant in its stores if it chose to go there
