This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. The mushrooms were not very flavorful and the chestnuts were a bit dry. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This dish was a bit too complicated for me. There were too many ingredients and the instructions were a bit confusing. I think I'll try a simpler recipe next time.

This dish was a bit of a disappointment. The mushrooms were tough and chewy, and the chestnuts were bland. The thyme was the only thing that really had any flavor. I think I'll stick to my usual mushroom recipes in the future.
