[Idiom] cook less more often

[maiabulela]

A chef says:

"Our motto here is "cook less more often""

I googled it and foound out that the origin is "eat less more often" but no explanation was provided. I can't the structure and the meaning.

Thanks a lot.

less = a smaller quantity. Eat, say, six smaller meals a day, rather than three big ones.

Offcourse, the chef would want you to cook less in the house so that you can come and eat more at his restaurant. He just twisted a popular phrase to suit his business. That is supposed to be eye catching. He wouldn't suggest you eat less more often, that is bad business for him, but cook less more often is great because people won't cook often in their houses, giving them a reason to eat more often at the chef's place.
