I remember last year I went to a dawat, the host had invited two families … the dessert was cheesecake that she had cut on heart shaped pieces …
even the icecubes in the drinks were heart shaped …
My question is , is this an awkward thing ? keeping our desi values in mind , this heart shaped thingy , can it give a negative impression to the guests ?
Oh and there were no kids there , the youngest one was 17 years old !
Re: heart shaped food …
Why would it give a negative impression? I dont understand it.
Re: heart shaped food …
People do what they like but i personally find these heart shaped things really cheesy.
Re: heart shaped food …
If someone puts the effort into doing it all in “heart theme” .. I find it a bit cute
Re: heart shaped food …
see , thats the thing , it felt awkward to me that I have a dil shaped dessert in my plate ! .. I feel it just gives a wrong kind of message , you know … I mean i might be wrong .. thats why i need to know if its ok to do present heart shaped food to guests ..
Re: heart shaped food …
pulao nahi mera dil hai yeh
khao khao, khaa lo naa
kind of impression can be vary bed vary bed!
Re: heart shaped food …
lolll Queer!
CB, don’t be hearting stuff I think. Sprinkle red. 
Re: heart shaped food …
What kind of message were you getting about a heart inyour plate?
Re: heart shaped food …
Queerie , you are in the shairana mood today 
niks , thanks for sharing your thought .. i guess hearts are good on cakes and all … not for formal dinners hai na … what about cookies though .. heart shaped cookies ?
Re: heart shaped food …
Sara , I dunno cant put it in words but it was just an awkward feeling … you know … like if i do something like that for close friends or spouse .. thats ok … but at a dinner dawat … its just awkward … or maybe not , maybe i am just reading too much into it …
Re: heart shaped food …
^ Lol I think you are reading too much into it 
hmm i see nothing wrong in heart shaped desserts or even utensils…but food is a bit overkill.but its still hardly anything negative…
Re: heart shaped food …
hmmm .. thanks for sharing your thought 
Re: heart shaped food …
I think its sweet she went to that effort.
But then again…its not hard at all to make me happy.
It wouldn’t really bug me but I understand the feeling you got. It might have been a bit too much.
Maybe it wouldn’t have been so bad if she had mixed it up with other shapes…like stars or something else.

Re: heart shaped food …
What?
I am trying!
Re: heart shaped food …
I dont see any negative feeling, it is just another way to show affection to your guests. 
Re: heart shaped food …
I don’t see anything wrong with it.
