So, how many of you have considered subscribing to meal kits prepared by renowned chefs? It seems like gourmet dining in the comfort of home is gaining quite a bit of traction these days. Not to mention, these meal kits often expose people to a wider range of foods and cuisines that they may not have otherwise discovered.
It’s been heartening to see how chefs and businesses have pivoted during lockdowns to bring a taste of world-class cuisine right to our doorsteps. In some cases, these boxes become a lifeline to keep the restaurant staff employed while introducing us to the joys of preparing gourmet dishes.
On the other hand, some people I’ve spoken to miss the whole dining out experience - the ambiance, the service, the sense of occasion. They feel that eating at home, even from an exquisite meal kit, doesn’t quite match up to that.
I’d be curious to hear your thoughts and experiences with these at-home fancy dinner boxes. Have you tried them? How does it compare for you to dining in person at the restaurant? Or, if you’re a bit of a foodie, have you preferred using lockdown to sharpen your culinary skills instead?
