When a guy chooses the place to take a girl, he should be prepared to pay for appropriate meal. That means, a drink or two first, an appetizer, main course, coffee, dessert and a bottle of wine, if you're going to a French restaurant, for example. It is very possible that she might order the most expensive main course. I will often do that - pick something that I really like, or something that the restaurant is known for. There is no good way of letting her know that she should not. Some of the finest restaurants will hand lady a menu without any prices, so she does not have to consider that at all! Well, at least the guy picks the wine... And don't order just bread and a beer for yourself, for God's sake!
If you're worried about the expense, choose a different restaurant, or opt for a picnic, or cook a meal yourself.
Incidently, if you feel that you have to take her to the best restaurant in town, she might not be a girl for you, unless that kind of prestige is important to you as well. Believe me, realizing that you're spending week's wages on the meal will pain most of the NICE girls.
As far as expensive cocktails, girls that don't really like the taste of alcohol will go for the foo-foo drinks, like pina coladas and ****, and they do happen to be the most expensive ones. Aggravates everyone, especially the bartender, but they do like 'em. Sometimes, that's the only alcohol they can stomach, and they doing it to please you, because you insist that she has a drink!
So ease up on the ladies, guys, and pick a place carefully, and enjoy the meal. Whether she woolfs it all down or picks daintily, will make no difference on the final bill.
