Re: A Complaint to the Chef

The beauty of Darfur. I can cook anything to an edible.

23

If something I've cooked really isn't tasteful at all, I want to know, so next time I can do better and if it's just the sort of dish itself which isn't liked, then I should also know so I won't make that again.

However, there are people who say something is a bad dish while it's actually very well cooked, and then they make a huge problem out of it. That sort of criticism isn't welcome at all, criticism should be given in a normal manner so you can learn something and it has to be about something that really is a fault or a failure.

Hm, so my ex-husband was a moron? I was married off to him when I was 18. His parents as well as himself were told before marriage that I couldn’t cook. Yet they still wanted me to marry him. His parents said it didn’t matter and that I would learn after marriage. I only knew how to make chapattees, parathay and halwa, roast chicken with aloo, pallao, zarda, bake eggs, make andi wala salan, samosay and I could make tea. That’s it. I knew nothing else at the time.

That's very kind of him. I guess he was thinking about the effort you put into cooking, even if perhaps he didn't like the dish or perhaps once it wasn't as tasty as normal.

I once read that Prophet Muhammad (saww) didn't criticize foods either. When he didn't like it, he quietly didn't eat that dish, but took something else.

Re: A Complaint to the Chef

I never comment on food, regardless. I eat graciously.

Re: A Complaint to the Chef

he used to be pretty grateful and encourage me but these days its more like... its not spicy enough or salty enough etc.

i admit i dont take the cirticism well either, i get pretty depressed cz cooking is all i have to do these days and if i mess even that up...well...blah.

Re: A Complaint to the Chef

I dont criticize food that my wife makes but then I don't appreciate that much too.

Whenever she says "sub tareef kertey hain liken majal hai k aap dil khool ker tareef ker deen" , I just ask her a simple question. "Are you ready for package deal? Like when its not good will you take my sharp criticism too with dil khool ker tareef?" and she said NO ...so I dont do either :D

PS: by the way she can tell the way I am eating food If I really like it or not ... she can tell in first 5 min and she is right 99% of time ...sometimes when she is too ticked off she says "to mun bhee khool deen ager pasand aaa raha hai khana tu" :)

34

Re: A Complaint to the Chef

Since I happen to have married a man for whom eating is a chore, I take no offense. BUT when he complements me on something I made, I'm over the moon for days lol!!

To me, eating is a joy of life. Its sad when someone views it as a chore, something that has to be done. But yet, I guess living with this man and the boyz who take after him, it kinda keeps me in check and keeps me in my size 6s!!
