Chef Couples' Most Romantic Meals
Payard Patisserie & Bistro and San Domenico Restaurant
New York, New York
T+L: Where have the two of you enjoyed a particularly romantic meal out?
PB: We were in the south of Cuba, in the middle of nowhere riding bicycles, when we found a remote hut with a thatched roof right along the beach. It was a small restaurant, where we had freshly caught and grilled langoustines along with cold beer. It was literally the perfect meal.
T+L: What's the most romantic way to cook together at home?
PB: "Soulful" food, like a hearty soup or stew, is the perfect romantic meal to make at home. The romance comes from marrying the ingredients, cooking them slowly and carefully, and sharing tastes as the dish cooks to notice how the flavors change. It's a process that requires time but can have delicious results—not unlike relationships.
