Well, no. What happens with us is that either one of us says "want to go to X restaurant?" Far enough ahead of time that the other person hasn't got some set idea of what they want this evening . So 90% of the time we just get "sure, thanks, yes". And maybe 10% of the time a "no, but could we go to Y?". Or a "No, I need to cook the chicken or it will go bad" And it's literally never gone farther than that.

If my husband did what you are describing above I would be confused. Like if he said "we will go to $restaurant" like that I would assume he had a desperate craving for it and would say yes, as it would be uncharacteristic. But if it kept happening I would ask him WTF?
