Erica and Leonard Ho
Which of you or your spouse cooks at home?
Leonard Ho, who works in the finance industry with his wife, Erica, said that she is the one who mostly handles cooking. She also does the groceries and everything else in the kitchen.
“I would usually cook steak and pasta for Leo,” she quipped, saying these are his favorite dishes. “It’s also easy to whip up at the last minute.”
If you have any food that your spouse would eat forever, what would it be?
“I think Erica can live on all kinds of curry forever,” Leonard said knowingly.
Aileen and Jason Cheng
Between you and Aileen, who is responsible for cooking meals?
Jason Cheng chronicled that his wife, Aileen, usually prepares their meals at home. She finds joy in cooking “everything and anything” for her husband.
“He enjoys it as long as it is not leftovers!” she added.
If given the freedom to eat a particular dish forever, what would your spouse choose?
“Lechon kawali,” both answered.
Janina Dizon and Walter McCaffrey
Between the two of you, who loves to cook?
“I do,” skilled jewelry designer Walter McCaffrey proudly said, declaring that he cooks for his wife, Janina, and their family. He told Lifestyle Asia of his sumptuous creamy baked salmon with toasted onions, which she is a huge fan of.
What food will Janina eat forever?
“Anything Japanese!” he commented. “She loves healthy food also, so anything that is not fried or oily.”
Solenn Heusaff and Nico Bolzico
Who cooks at home, you or Nico?
Actress, model, and mom Solenn Heusaff giddily described their setup at home. “Usually I prepare our meals,” she answered. “But recently, I’ve been training the cook at home because I want to spend time with the kids.”
She affirmed that as much as she loves to cook for the family, she and Nico love having friends over. “When we do have guests, mostly Nico is in charge of cooking,” she explained. “We built an Argentinian grill where he grills his meats. He really wants to be the one standing behind it. So, I must say he cooks more nowadays.”
What would Nico eat forever if he had the choice?
Solenn said her husband would eat steak and vegetable tarts forever if it was possible. “He can eat half a kilo of steak everyday and he is obsessed with the vegetable tarts as he doesn’t like to eat too many sides. We usually make spinach tarts or tomato ones to go with meats, and I think he can live off of that.”
