3 Ways to Fancy Up Your Take-Out

Posted

Sometimes, making dinner can slip your mind or a long day at work can mean you pick up some take-out on the way home. These nights are not as well-organized or formal; but there are still opportunities to make these informal meals, special. Here are three ways to fancy up those take-out nights.

  1. Add thoughtful touches. One of the most obvious ways to make a take-out dinner special is by adding small details that most would overlook during dinner. Switch out the take-out cartons and bags for nice dishes, flat wear, drinking glasses, and cloth napkins. Light a few pillar candles, taper candles, or tea lights and lay down a table cloth. These small touches can make the atmosphere of your evening special and unforgettable.
  1. Food origins can make it different. Whether your take-out is Mexican, Chinese, Italian, or Persian, there are so many ways add a surprising twist to your meal. With Chinese take-out, use chopsticks instead of flat wear or go as far as sitting on the ground around the coffee table. With Italian, buy some fancy bread and wine and light up Root Candles Blue Basil candles or Pinot Noir, making the evening smell as though you were sitting in Italy. Different types of food means different ways you can fancy up those boxes and bags and make it a wonderful night whether you’re in China or Italy.

  1. Unwrap and Unplug. The best way to make the night special is by forgetting the boxes and bags and the television, phone calls, and social networks and instead engage in conversation and just enjoy being with each other.

Take-out can be made special with the right touches such as Root Candles’ pillar candles, taper candles, or tea lights and wonderful conversation making a simple meal an unforgettable one.
