Depends on how much you're getting paid

>> No.9095899

If I am cooking for myself I don't care, but if it's for others (especially a date) I prefer my dish to not look like a pile of slop.

good food tastes good no matter how you plate it

bad food tastes bad no matter how you plate it

It only matters to superficial morons. What really matters is how it tastes and its nutritional value.

>It only matters to superficial morons

People are fond of saying that, but the research suggests that people are attracted to presentation whether they realize it themselves or not.

Depends.
>cooking for yourself
Who gives a fuck.

>cooking for family/close friends etc on an ordinary occasion
It's nice to put a bit of effort in but no need to go crazy

>date/major event (birthday, anniversary, whatever)
Put some effort in to make your food look really nice.

>professional kitchen
Nigga that shit better look fantastic leaving the kitchen. You want every person out there who sees that plate go out to think 'damn, I'll have to come back and try that'. Better looking food definitely helps you make money.
