Question of the Day: Who Does the Cooking in Your Household?

I plan the meals, then my girlfriend and I take turns cooking for each other - sometimes it's a collaboration.

Question of the Day: Popeye's or Kentucky Fried?

Love the Red Beans & Rice. Sometimes just get a large w/ biscuit. Gotta ask for a bunch of hot sauce packets. Think they cook all or most of it up in a building on Airline Highway in New Orleans. Spicy chicken sandwich is also good, though not every branch offers it.

to clarify, I like QDoba becuase it has beer. But I just remembered they don't have pork, so that's a point for Chipotle. Anna's and Boca Grande in Boston are better than both, especially the latter.

And Boston food sucks compared to New York in every other way.

You can get good tacos al bastor 4 hours north of NYC at Boca Grande in Boston. Hard to believe, I know....but it's absolutely true.

Chipotle and Qdoba both suck the meat missile. And, yes, I eat at both of them...because we have little choice. I like Qdoba better.

Chipotle's taking its share of hits here. The Taco Bell comparison just above is off-base, because Chipotle, even if their idea of a burrito is all wrong, uses far better base ingredients than Taco Bell. #2, it sounds like one can't like Chipotle even a little without being told that you're all wrong, or that you're just like he was before he went out west, etc.. Nonsense. I've been out west. They're better there. But Chipotle's not horrible. Chipotle often leaves me feeling lousy afterwards, and the My Space generation completely oversaturates my hometown branch, but it'll sate a craving, which is more than one can say for alot of places. Again, think about actually leaving some ingredients OUT of your burrito - you will enjoy it more. Cheers

Question of the Day: Who Does the Cooking in Your Household?

Mostly me, as my boyfriend works longer hours than I do and has a longer commute. He would much rather do the cooking though--I'm not much of a cook (pasta with things thrown in it, some fish, I'm kind of boring), but I love having the house to myself in the early evening to bake. Dessert is a much bigger event most evenings.

Question of the Day: Who Does the Cooking in Your Household?

While we both like to cook, my husband does most of the cooking. Which I am OK with because he is a better cook than me :)

Question of the Day: Who Does the Cooking in Your Household?

I am the one who likes to cook in my family. Because so, I usually have to clean up too, that way I have a good chance of finding the cleaned utensil again. My husband refers to the kitchen as 'that yellow room', because he can't manage to make anything other than ramen or frozen pizza (unless it involves a grill).

Question of the Day: Who Does the Cooking in Your Household?

Right now I'm handling 95% of the cooking, but that's only because my wife is dealing with a squirmy one-month-old. Prior to that we split the duties pretty evenly. I love to cook, but I have a penchant for more high-fat fare than my wife, who cooks wonderful vegetarian Indian food. As my waistline expands I realize that I miss the regular doses of veg in my diet.

Sorry BaHa -- I'm adept at making big messes so I need to reserve Ed's strength for our kitchen.

Question of the Day: Who Does the Cooking in Your Household?

i do all the cooking, my boyfriend all the cleaning. unless i've cut my finger chopping something, then he is nice enough to take over... he also comes in handy when it is time for mashing potatoes or stirring things!

I'm a freelancer who works at home, so I generally do the weeknight planning, shopping, and cooking. Once I start chopping that garlic, all the aggravations of the day evaporate. On the weekend, Bruce often takes over--makes great soup, particularly. If I'm working on a huge project, Clinton Street Frankie's steps in!
I generally do most of the dishes, simply because it is easier than redoing them...Acme, can I borrow Ed?
