Online Cooking Lesson Dinner
Join an online cooking class together and prepare your meals simultaneously. Enjoy the experience of learning a new recipe and spending quality time, even though you are in different cities.
- You and your partner are in a long-distance relationship, with one located in İzmir and the other in Istanbul. Due to the distance, regular dates are not an option. However, love knows no boundaries, and neither should your dates. An online cooking class, despite the physical distance, will bring you closer. You both sign up for the same cooking class online and prepare your dinner at the same time. You create the same dish, learn together, and laugh at each other's cooking mishaps.
- During the online class, you both follow the instructor's directions, measuring, dicing, and cooking. The scent of the delicious food adds to the anticipation of finally getting to taste your joint culinary creation. You can even spice it up by turning it into a little competition - whose dish looks better, whose tastes better.
- When everything is ready, plate up, sit down at the table and enjoy your meals together while talking about the cooking process, the successes, and the funny mistakes. It's a wonderful way to feel close despite the miles separating you.
Preparation steps:
- To prepare for this date, both of you have to sign up for the same online cooking class. Choose a class that matches your kitchen capabilities and taste preferences. Make sure to choose a menu that isn't too difficult, as the idea is to enjoy the process. Communicate the class and menu with your partner and agree on a time that works for both of you, given the time difference between the two locations.
- Both of you need to purchase the ingredients beforehand. The list should be provided by the online cooking class and do ensure to prepare everything before the class begins. This may also be a good time to make sure you both have a stable internet connection and a stand for your phone or tablet so you can see what the instructor is doing.
- On the day of the date, set up your gadgets in the kitchen where you have a proper view of the cooking process. Do check your internet connectivity once more. You want everything to be ready and in order for the virtual culinary journey with your partner.

Some tips:
- For this long-distance date to be a success, make sure to plan well. As this is an online date, a poor internet connection could ruin the experience. Therefore, prepare for any technical difficulties that might arise. If you're unable to video chat during the cooking process, you could always show each other the finished product and enjoy the meal over a simple phone call.
- Keep the atmosphere light and the conversation flowing. You don't want to become too engrossed in your cooking that you forget to interact with each other. Regularly check on each other's progress and even gently tease or encourage each other.
- Since this is a cooking lesson, it could get messy. Don't worry about it and instead focus on the fun aspect of it. In fact, the messy kitchen can turn into a topic of conversation and a great photo opportunity to remember your unique date.
