Cooking is great and making a good meal is food for the soul. Cooking for one though, is not much fun. God has designed it that meals spent together with good friends and especially fellow Christians strengthens our bonds with each other, but especially with Him.
Jesus knew this, so when Peter decided to go fishing after the crucifixion, thinking he had failed, Jesus appears and shares a meal with them. After this Peter's spiritual eyes are opened and he sees Jesus clearly.
It's at this time that Jesus reverses Peter's denial of him and asks him to profess his love for Christ three times again. God is intimately aware of our insecurities and meets us exactly at the point of our failures to show his mercy, love and Grace.
