Hi everybody!!
I need need some expert advice concerning the referenced subject. In
brief,
recently camping on the beach on a fishing trip
---snip---
In my humble opinion it was the tender loving care you gave this
particular
dish at that particular time.

I agree with you, Wayne. I've always thought the cook's mood at the time
has a lot to do with the final outcome of the dish. Recipes can seem to be
prepared
exactly the same way on different occasions, but one tastes better than the
other.
I have served dishes to customers on a "good mood" day and received rave
reviews.
Then, they come back and request it again on a "bad mood" day and it comes
out good,
but they say "it just wasn't the same as last time". I try to promote
another dish on the
"bad mood" days, lol.
This also re-enforces why it is good advice to plan ahead, remain calm and
focused, and
enjoy cooking. The food will likely be served at it's best.
"Happy Cooking" Misschef
