Cook to Bang. Recipes to get you laid?
In all seriousness, chocolate fondue. Kind of kitschy, a little sticky and oh-so-intimate. Also, chocolate and berries and cake? Also, back when I ate meat, I found that a seared tuna steak was sexier and sat better than a rich cream sauce or a big chunk of red meat.
Cook the Book: 'Almost Meatless'
Mmm, I'm a vegetarian now but I desperately miss the rich and smoky depth of flavor brought cheaply to baked beans by salt pork.
Would You Seriously Date Someone Who Didn't Love Food?
I really like the way chisai put it (and a couple of other posters touched on it as well), that a conflict over food just keeps coming up. I think I could tolerate our totally divergent tastes in music, because that only comes up every other day or so when we are in a car together. But he will not eat any vegetables except spinach cooked until it is dark, he doesn't like any type of Asian or long noodle, he won't eat yogurt, he doesn't like baked or mashed potatoes, tomatoes, avocado, olives, beans or tofu (and I am a vegetarian), he doesn't eat fruit and doesn't like "fruit in desserts" (he turned his nose up at a lemon cake!). I'm getting really tired of making pigs in a blanket, macaroni and cheese and gnocchi.
The other night I made barbecue tofu, buttermilk biscuits, a simple green salad with a vinaigrette and roasted baby brussel sprouts. He ate four biscuits.
Any ideas of what I can feed him?

Yeah, most of the time I am so grateful to have more than potato salad to eat that it doesn't matter if I have a dedicated "main dish". Cooking fish en papillote is lovely light and spring-y, and you could fill one packet with only vegetables or add mushrooms/marinated tofu. A nice salad or some other side, some good bread and salted butter and maybe a rhubarb cobbler for dessert?
