Many men like steaks. The keys to a great steak? Good meat and a hot fire. Find a butcher and get some great non-supermarket stuff.

Afraid of cooking a steak? Really set on Pasta? Drop the word experimental and just make what might be considered a standard pasta meal with one very important difference: use all fresh ingredients.

Pasta with meat sauce, fresh garlic bread and a good salad (coupled with a hefty red wine if you are old enough) can be mindblowing, but ensure that your results are what you hoped for. (Ingredients from specialty stores like fresh Italian Sausage, fresh tomatoes, basil, red pepper, fresh pasta and a crusty fresh bread make things work out just right)

Experiements should be left for those types of times and could cause stress that would detract from the experience. He doesn't want to see you all stressed out the entire time trying to please him. Center the meal about spending quality time over a good meal and all will be right as rain.
