help me /ck/ you're my only hope
My friend wants to cook with me for our wives for Valentines day.
>He sucks at cooking (no big deal, he wants to learn) fine.
>his wife is picky as fuck.
I need a legit 4 course menu for a picky chicken and beef only not too spicy type girl.
I was thinking
>seared sea scallops with saffron butter sauce. if she doesn't eat it, fuck her, I'll eat them.
>sous vide then seared beef tenderloin with some kind of whiskey reduction sauce and compound butter
>confit duck leg with champagne risotto
>some bullshit dessert like a poached saffron pear.
i don't fucking know. what do you people with picky family members serve?

Just do what you want. If the bitch doesn't eat perfectly good food, it's not your fault.
Don't cater to picky eaters.

Whatever I feel like. If they're picky that's their problem.

Is homemade hot sauce simply as easy as taking peppers and blending them together with vinegar?

Is French cuisine overrated?
Not saying it´s bad, but I don´t find it any better or worse than other European cuisines

Traditional French, Italian, and Spanish cuisine are the top 3 in Europe on account of their lack of aversion to vegetable matter.
As you get too far East or North, the cheese and meat may be good, the grain foods may be good, but it becomes increasingly monochrome on account of climate and culture.
This is perfectly agreeable to many people in the Anglosphere who grew up eating only processed bread and luncheon meats, but it's objectively a limiting, boring diet.
>>
>>8568282
Can confirm, in Poland our cuisine is extremly fat and caloric. It dates back to times when most people were pesant farmer working all day in the field. Food was supposed to fill you up and give you energy for the rest of the day.
>>
>>8568273
no, it's easily the most expansive and best cuisine in the world.

http://www.businessinsider.com/why-customers-are-abandoning-whole-foods-2017-2
>Whole Foods was a pioneer in organic food in the US decades before such food was popular, betting on the idea that people would pay a premium for the label. The idea paid off: Sales of organic food more than tripled from 2005 to 2015, to $43.3 billion from $13.8 billion, according to the Organic Trade Association. Whole Foods' business should be booming as a result. But customers are abandoning the supermarket chain, as retailers including Kroger and Walmart ramp up their organic food offerings to meet growing demand.
>The company's same-store sales have declined in each of the past six quarters. The chain saw a 2.4% decline in that metric during its most recent quarter, with transactions — which is used to measure traffic — falling by 3.9%.
>Whole Foods is now battling a wide range of competitors including specialty grocers like Sprouts Farmers Market as well as traditional grocers like Kroger, big-box retailers like Walmart and Target, and discount grocers like Aldi. Traditional grocers have been offering "good enough" alternatives to Whole Foods, and the company has watched its sales decline as a result — particularly on the weekends, he said.

>"Many of our stores where people used to drive long distances on the weekends and do big shops, we're seeing a little bit of a decline on that," Whole Foods CEO John Mackey said. Kroger started expanding its private-label Simple Truth organic food brand several years ago, and it now devotes multiple aisles in its stores to organic and natural foods.
>Walmart also now devotes a section of its fresh-produce department to featuring organic and locally sourced products. It has been rapidly growing its Neighborhood Markets stores, as well, which are much smaller than its Supercenters and focus solely on groceries and pharmacy.
>The German chain Aldi, which is even cheaper than Walmart, invested heavily in organic food last year by expanding organic food brands, removing some artificial ingredients from its products, and adding more gluten-free items. This year, Aldi is spending $1.6 billion to redesign 1,300 of its US stores to feature softer lighting and bigger produce sections.
>The new stores look a lot like Whole Foods' new chain of stores, called 365 by Whole Foods Market, which the company launched last year to better compete with the increasingly crowded market for low-cost organic goods. The stores are cheaper to build than Whole Foods' traditional stores, so it has more flexibility in pricing.
On the one hand I'm glad that higher quality produce is becoming less of a luxury, but on the other I'm not exactly sure what WF should do to stop the bleeding if I were in their position. Do they have a nice selection of deli subs/salads like Publix?

>>8572821
There's some little things they could do to draw people in so they then buy other stuff? Like sell bananas that are ready to eat today, instead of mandating they be taken off the floor as soon as they have a single brown spot? In parts of the U.S., that would make them the only place to buy ripe bananas besides scary brown people stores.
>>
>>8572835
What if they hired bi-weekly or monthly culinary instructors to come teach a cooking class in-store on weekends with free admission at the door using your WF grocery receipt as a ticket?
It could be part education/part product demo using items off their stock shelves. Same kind of setup could with arranging a registered dietitian to give talks and answer Q&A as well.
