Renowned Nigerian chef Hilda Effiong Bassey, known affectionately as Hilda Baci, recently expressed a unique perspective on relationships, highlighting her preference for a partner who appreciates her culinary prowess. In a compelling podcast video, which has taken the internet by storm, Baci revealed why she is adamant about not dating or marrying a man who possesses culinary skills.
Baci unapologetically declared her love for cooking while emphasizing her desire for a partner who does not overshadow her in the kitchen. “I don’t want a man that knows how to cook. I don’t want it. I like cooking so much,” she passionately expressed.
The sentiment stemmed from Baci’s profound enjoyment in conveying affection through the act of cooking for her loved ones. “My friends would tell you like Hilda would show you love, she will send you food. You will cook for you. That’s kind of one of the things I like to do for people that I care about, especially for my man,” she elaborated, portraying her culinary creations as gestures of love and care.
Unveiling her unique preference, Baci revealed that her ideal demonstration of love lies in her partner ordering food for her. “I want a man that can order me food. If you don’t have a problem with ordering me food, I’m in love,” she confessed, shedding light on the intricacies of her love language.
Baci’s open and candid revelation provides a thought-provoking insight into the varied dynamics of romantic relationships and individual preferences. While her stance may differ from conventional expectations, it serves as a testament to the diverse tapestry of love languages and relationship dynamics that exist across cultures.
In a world where culinary traditions and expressions of affection intersect, Baci’s unwavering stance serves as a poignant reminder of the rich tapestry of human connection, where individual nuances and preferences shape the intricate dance of love and intimacy.
