[Closed] What to cook to impress a woman?

i mean err, it's degrading and you should be ashamed of yourself..

emsz. You can insult me, my cooking or even my wife. But please, don't insult Tartiflette, it is food royalty and should be treated with the reverence it deserves.

(You are of course right, but they is irrelevant, you get more from Tartiflette than it can ever give to you...)

Nothing too spicy, heavy or rich as you will be banging away and don't want reflux, eggy farts or a shart. From either of you.

I'm writing a dating book.

Sort it out like adults.

Some of these are getting to the point of trying too hard I reckon. You might as well just offer her cash.

/me really rather loves lunge's attitude to the mighty Tartiflette...

Rachel

in any other setting, I'm at the front of the que for tartiflette, but on a date?

seriously it'll only end badly 😆

Some truth in that emsz - it' a bit of an "omg I'm so full I might explode" kind of meal. Not ideal for later, I grant you...

Rachel

@ grum ,furiously tapping non existant like button!

I'd do saffron, chilli and crab risotto, this one

Healthy, tasty and not too heavy. It's nice with home made chocolate tart after.

Tartiflette is amazing but it's an energy food, best saved for the evening after a long, busy day in bed.

STW-standards are slipping... 🙄

Sausages wrapped in bacon.

It's a date make it special,add cheese.

joolsburger - you're proposing giving her crabs?

It's one of those foods where your like "oh go on then, just one more spoonful" and you end up with a tartifette baby, and then before you know it, your asleep on the sofa. 😆

Ah!!!! Maybe that's why the OP was served very average food - he wasn't supposed to eat it - he was supposed to get himself up them stairs, instead!!! 😆

Rachel

Of course living in a bungalow means tartiflette followed by rumpy pumpy presents no problem whatsoever.

Cook off?

I've got scallops and black pudding in the fridge so might make the pea puree/black-pudding/scallop thing tonight. My wife is working late and it'd be a nice treat for her when she gets home.

I've been experimenting with Japanese cooking of late - I reckon that'd impress on a date. Suchi to start followed by an Udon noodle soup topped with a poached egg and teryaki beef.

Forget your wife and Rachel I'm on my way , what's your address?

I don't know the first thing about Japanese cooking and kind of wish I did.

Rachel

I don't think I could do rumpy pumpy after tartiflette, I'd heave.
😳

I'm thinking no starter (tooo try hard) then something a little bit warm (spicy) or tapas, or something spainish-y then maybe creme brulee to cool it off a bit.

I'd be anybody's after that 😆

Brave girl admitting that on here...

The Japanese cooking is a new venture for me. My first efforts at suchi weren't great but after a couple of goes they looked decent and tasted good. I've done udon noodle soops a few times and I use teryaki with steak quite often (I made steak sandwiches with toasted ciabatta, teryaki beef and a beetroot and tomato salad on Monday night), but I've got quite a few things I want to try.

I make cocktails as well - that'd also impress on a date I think.

where d'you live? 😆

where d'you live?

With my wife...

With my wife...

Not for long "your my wife now"

I think I did roast partidge followed by a coffee and chocolate pudding. Not much sleeping that night.

Emsz really? Im just off down to Iceland. They might have two for one offers on too if ok?

"oh go on then, just one more spoonful" and you end up with a tartifette baby, and then before you know it, your asleep on the sofa.

Do you mean this sort of tartifflette baby.

Or this one?

Just remembered the first meal I ate when I started dating a posh bird several years ago - doner kebab. We even celebrated out first anniversary with the same. We remained together and other 3-4 years.

First meal I cooked for her was coconut chicken (a mild take on a Thai curry) with rice and sundries. Went down a treat.

I'd just take thestabilizer's advice.
Classic!

Ended up taking her out instead. Got a bit tied up with the police after intervening with a kitchen porter threatening to stab a chef with a boning knife. As you do.

now that's just showing off...

I can't believe that nobody suggested crisps.

Hang on, I want to know about the attempted stabbing!

Mate of mine had a date with a Page 3 "stunna" a few years ago. She wanted to go to McDonald's. Classy!

I think I did roast partidge followed by a coffee and chocolate pudding. Not much sleeping that night.

Seriously, 3 puddings.
Starter - a light pudding
Main - something with fruit
Pudding - something with lots and lots of chocolate

Hey, I suggested a hot chocolate fondant. You can't get more chocolatey than that...! And...AND I didn't mention anything else, so basically I was suggesting JUST pudding.

That's pretty ***kin' hot. Infact, I'd even shag myself after eating one of those bad boys.

teasel - do these puddings of yours travel well? 🙂

🙂

Actually, in all seriousness, they do. I live next door to my partner and regularly (as they're not too fattening) make the journey to her door with a pair of hot chocies. The pre-mix version, in little moulds, would easily survive a journey in a car...

Well we're still together and have two kids. I think if I fed her coffee and chocolate pudding now there'd be divorce or murder. Changed days.
