He Told His Girlfriend’s Dad That The Food He Cooks Is Garbage After His Girlfriend’s Dad Yelled At His Girlfriend And Said He Would Never Walk Her Down The Aisle
Cooking can get very competitive between family members. There are always those few family members who get into debates over how to cook something during a family gathering.
One man is a professional chef who recently got into a fight with his girlfriend’s dad, who always tries to one-up him with his cooking.
He’s 27 and has been with his 29-year-old girlfriend for four years. He is a trained chef working at an upscale local restaurant and is looking into opening his own restaurant in the next year or two.
When he first met his girlfriend’s family a few months into their relationship, he got along with everyone really well, except for her dad.
“Her father, on the other hand, was less than impressed with my training as a chef and constantly boasted about his cooking, constantly trying to one-up me,” he explained.
“He was always the person who cooked for the family on weekends and [at] family functions. That was until [during] one of these family gatherings, my girlfriend’s younger sister’s birthday, where the sisters and girlfriend asked me to cook for the night.”
Everyone was so impressed with his cooking during that gathering that they replaced his girlfriend’s dad with him as their go-to cook. He’s cooked for several more of his girlfriend’s family events, and it’s been driving her dad crazy.
His girlfriend’s dad has been clearly upset over him stealing his “family cook thunder.” One time, when he cooked something for his girlfriend’s family, her dad took one bite and pushed his plate away before leaving to get fast food out of spite.
Since his girlfriend moved in with him a few months ago, she hasn’t eaten anything made by her dad.

Things recently came to a head when she went to her parents’ house for a visit, and her dad asked her to stay for dinner.
She told her dad no and explained that he was making one of her favorite meals at home, so she would eat dinner at their place instead.
According to his girlfriend, her dad flipped out. He told her she had been acting like a snob ever since dating him and that he would never walk her down the aisle if the two of them were to get married because he couldn’t stand him.
When his girlfriend called him crying, saying she was too distressed to drive and needed a ride home, he became furious.
“I love her and hate it when she cries,” he said. “I picked her up there and, on my way out, told him that the reason his entire family asks me to cook at family functions is that, unlike him, I actually knew what I was doing instead of just throwing bacon and butter at everything and calling it a day. I told him I wouldn’t feed his garbage to the strays.”
Since that blowout, there’s been a lot of tension between him and his girlfriend’s family. While his girlfriend appreciates him defending her, she feels like he may have gone too far with what he said.
His girlfriend’s mom and sister are on their dad’s side, which he understands, but he doesn’t like being at odds with them because he adores them.
How can he make things right with his girlfriend’s dad?
