True. A lot of expensive food like a caviar I had was seriously overrated. And I love simple ramen or whatever.
But knowing how to make a meal like in a expensive restaurant is good too.
If I really work an hour on an elaborate meal it could definitely be called "Rich" and definitely worth it.
Whoever posted this must not know good taste at all
The "poor" part is not about taste... it's about cost of ingredients.
