Is Cooking an Art or a Science?

Science is Art.
I mean, how else can you explain a rainbow, beautiful flowers, and how mentos react with coke? I think that in cooking, one can't exist without the other.
 
Art. No two people do it exactly the same, and just like painting, sculpting, or music, "good" cooking is subjective. One person might love it, while the next person hates it.
 
Art but to master it you have to take the science part which is the experience gained through
years &years of others work
It is like painting you will not invent the brush or make your own colors
 
Both.
YOu require to know the exact method and ingredient... so tht makes it a science.
and you require 2 give it a personal touch to make it look and taste delicious... so thts art...
 
It is both Art and Science.....

Art as to the cooks skill in adding the right proportion to taste...
Art as the chief's five senses to understand the taste colour and texture.....His customers want....

Science as in the marination.... Chemical reaction{slow}

science as in the way you bland spices to mask off smell that would otherwise ruine your appitite.
