Have a BBQ - some nice veggies in olive oil with lots of garlic (make sure you both eat them) and nicely marinated chicken.
In general - I don't know how expensive it is to eat out all the time, it would be too expensive for a family to do this daily in a lot of European places (if you're not loaded).
What about doing a cookery course? It is possible to prepare quick and easy dishes or the odd toasted sandwich with salad or a soup.
Hey Dreamcatcher, sorry I just now checked-out your thread... Burn down the house ? Most foods cooked, turn-out better if cooked on low heat and just take your time doing it, let it simmer, whatever you cook... Keep from being overwhelmed by choosing only two items for a few weeks: A main dish and one side item, then a simple dessert or even a large snack instead... Ouch, Okay, Houston, we've had a problem here... I checked-out the cooking videos about cooking food in your country and half of the videos are about cooking chicken curry, I know, sounds familiar... If he follows Hinduism, he doesn't eat beef, half of Malaysia is Islamic and must be near impossible to find pork... This thread definitely needs more help from other members. Sorry that I couldn't help more.

Just to add something ,,, like most of the asian countries, there street (food) vendors anywhere, good as what we simmer at home,, it is almost economical to bring your man outside down the street, and it's lively ,, that keeps you a lot of cutting and slicing as most of the cooking, meats are sliced to small cuts.

Unfortunately we don't have street cooking in Plymouth, although they do in London. I still prefer cooking at home as I am a wnaabe chef
Pizza delivery-good wine-and a nice fresh salad I have found fruit salads good with pizza
I am sure that food is not what he is really hungry for. Your company should be what he is most interested in. Even a blind man could see your beauty. Enjoy your time with him. Don't sweat the small stuff. Just have fun. You can even make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich fun with a little imagination.

how disgusting...leading this girl astray......dirty girlii.
If you want to cook for him, then do. The same thing that drives a person want to feed another, will drive them to want to do it well. Keep it simple at first, the risk will be to try and over achieve. You can always add a little something at the plate, but it's harder to take things back out. As something of a neophyte cook myself, I prefer the simple, short ingredient list dishes and adding things to them over successive preparations.
If it's just going to be a chore to you like washing dishes, do it as little as possible.
CuddlingSoul: It sounds like a predicament. I would suggest a better location, but I can't swear that the variety of food would be any better in the Philippines.
