ok to make the sauce

Answer 6

figure out what type of people you are cooking for , what i mean is that you can find out what their kind of taste for food is. because most people think of romantic dinners as food that they often eat. just try to find out their likes and dislikes and maybe cook a variety of different platters to each of their like. and alot of it has to do with the setting , and not so much the food. so good luck!

Answer 7

I think the pasta suggestions are dangerous, especially with those tomato-based runny sauces. They make a mess everywhere. Stay away from "tough" food, such as prawns, crabs, etc. I think chicken or beef with a mushroom or pepper sauce with sides of vegetables.
