How To Make Eating Takeout Food Feel More Like Dining Out
For people who love eating out at restaurants, having to dine on takeout at home can feel uninspiring.
But according to Business Insider, chefs and restauranteurs say there a number of ways to make eating at home feel more special.
First, turn off the news and the fluorescent kitchen lights. Swap them for mood music and candlelight.
Dress your table in the theme of the cuisine you're eating. Use cloth napkins with napkin rings or fancy folds, and your good china, cutlery, and stemware.
Third, pair your meal with an appropriate beverage: sweet tea with fried chicken, sake with sushi, or horchata with Mexican food.
Finally, jazz up your entree's plating with a garnish, and your dessert with whipped cream, fresh fruit, or a chocolate or raspberry drizzle. Bon appetit!
