After doing a search and coming up with some great results that seem to confirm my hunch, I have decided to take the plunge into learning how to cook a few varied dishes really well. The reason for this is that, as many posters have noted in various threads, inviting a girl over to your place while you cook and the both of you drink seems to be one of the best ways to speed up the dating process.
I've dealt with some major handicaps as far as my game goes up until this point, and one of the biggest, or potentially the single biggest, was that I basically haven't had my own place with a kitchen up until now in my late 20's. I do quite a bit of day game, and as anyone with experience with day game knows, the majority of the work in getting a new notch, STR, or LTR is in the dating process. Basically without my own place I've often been forced to do the 4-5 date thing with several girls at a time, and this process is very time consuming and inefficient.
One great solution (although I can't say from personal experience just yet) is to invite the girl over to your place relatively early on. I'm talking first or second date, or maybe third date at most. As many have said, the plausible deniability of her coming over for a dinner is usually enough to get her to agree to come, and once she is in the crib with the right game and the right drinks it shouldn't be hard to seal the deal or have her come over to seal the deal the very next time.
All this being said, I was hoping anyone who cooks well, and especially those that use cooking as a means to get a chick over and get to the bed, could share the names and recipes/links to their favorite dishes. I believe that having 2-3 dishes in your arsenal could be a complete game changer for myself and anyone else that isn't already using this strategy. I'm fully aware I could google this sort of thing, but I thought this thread could potentially be a good resource for others on the forum.
As far as I'm concerned, the aspects of the dish that are the most important for my goals are:
1. Time involved in making the dish, including the shopping process.
2. How good it tastes/impressive it will be.
3. Ease with which the dish can be made.
I've considered learning some Middle Eastern dishes from my mom and pulling a "hey come try some homemade _____ at my place", but a lot of these dishes take hours to shop for, prepare, and actually cook. If I am going to have to dedicate 4 hours every time to the process of making a dish for a girl, I'll just go out for drinks instead. Keep in mind some dishes call for fresh ingredients that can't be stored for long. This is what I mean by #1.
As for #2 I don't really care too much how good it tastes personally because I am on a strict diet and will continue to be moving forward, but I'm sure the dish itself or having a story about it can really get a chick's brain moving.
As for #3, if it will take me years to perfect the dish then I'm pretty much SOL.
Fire away!
