Whether you’re a whimsically original Aquarius or sensuously stubborn Taurus there is definitely a meal out there that can make you say, even after the most awkward of first dates, “Well at least the food was good!”
1. Aries
For the energetic and turbulent Aries a first date meal should reflect your active no fuss lifestyle. Trying bold and spicy new flavors is never daunting and anything that can be made in a pinch is always a plus!
Try Mediterranean cuisine or Middle Eastern fares such as this Spiced Chicken And Couscous to tantalize your senses (and hopefully your dates as well). In addition anything with Sriracha is always a winner!
2. Taurus
One can safely say Taurus is one of the most romantic signs in the zodiac. Which means a first date meal is one of great importance and sets the tone for most of the evening. Anything rich and decadent is definitely up your alley with large portions encouraged!
You expect nothing but the finest of quality and like the steadfast bull, enjoy the classics like this Filet Mignon With Chocolate Balsamic Reduction. Serve up with a side of buttery mashed potatoes and a glass of dry red Pinot Noir and you will have no choice but to feel starry eyed and satisfied by the end of the evening.
3. Gemini
The perfect first date meal for any Gemini requires it to be interesting enough to stimulate the thought process as well as the palate and not fail to command attention courtesy of your fickle and ever changing natures. Creative and inquisitive, you are willing to experience everything there is out of life, as long as there are no strings attached.
With that in mind try this beautiful and fresh 3-Ingredient Grilled Watermelon, Feta And Tomato Salad. If the combination of briny and tangy feta accompanied by the savoury depth of the grilled watermelon don’t keep you in place for a few moments, I don’t know what will!
4. Cancer
As the main homebodies of the zodiac, a first date meal for a cancer needs to be comforting and taste as fresh (or homemade) as possible. Your sensitive and caring nature make you the best for testing out a date’s home cooking skills.
