Instead of wondering whether you're going to get your date back to your place, why not just start there?

That is the premise of a new cooking show for bachelors filmed on location at Jack's Steakhouse in Baldwin Park, Fl., and produced by ICPlaces.com. I worked on the set throwing out lines when Chef Chris and co-host Steve Samblis got tripped up. I also wrote titles and show notes to appear with the video segments at Mevio.com.

The meals are meant to be easily prepared by bachelors who aren't chefs, and most dishes take less than fifteen minutes and cost less than twenty dollars. Chef Chris gives a step by step process so any guy can wow their lady. Below are some samples of the text.

Bananas Foster Defrost Her

Fire your girl up with a simple dessert that tastes as impressive as it looks.

2 Bananas
2 Tbsp Butter
1/4 cup Light Brown Sugar
White rum, 4 oz
Banana Liqueur, 1 oz
Nutmeg or Cinnamon
Vanilla Ice Cream

Melt the butter over low to medium heat while you quarter your bananas. Add brown sugar and let it get nice and caramelized. Brown your bananas on all sides for about a minute while you scoop out the ice cream, then put the bananas on top.

Turn up the heat a bit on your pan and add the rum and banana liqueur. To get big flames going with an electric stove, make sure your syrup is hot, or light it up with a kitchen lighter. As you let the alcohol burn off, add your cinnamon or nutmeg. Pour over the bananas and ice cream, and enjoy.

Five dollars, five minutes, five stars. Now don't let yourself be a flash in the pan.

Got a Wish? Make Her Fish: Grouper With Leek Ragù

This quick and light pan-seared grouper with a mushroom and leek ragu will have her calling you chef, or anything else you want.

2 filets grouper, or other white fish
1 leek
7 button mushrooms, sliced
2 shallots
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp heavy cream
1 tbsp brandy
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp olive oil
Flour
Salt and pepper

Prep the fish with a little salt and flour both sides. Sear in a medium-high pan for about a minute per side, then put it in a 350 degree oven for just a few minutes. Turn the pan up to high heat and melt the oil and butter together. Add the leeks then garlic and allow to soften before adding the shallots and mushrooms and cooking a little more. Add the tomato, salt, and pepper before adding the heavy cream and brandy. Let it heat through for a minute or so and serve alongside the fish. It’s a gourmet dish for less than 20 dollars.

The rest, Ra-guru, is up to you.
