"I enjoy cooking, but I like to go out to eat sometimes, too."
Explanation: The original is a run-on (two independent clauses). Option 1 correctly joins them with a comma + coordinating conjunction ("but"). Option 2 is a comma splice; option 3 uses a colon awkwardly (colon implies explanation or emphasis); option 4 misuses a semicolon before "and."
