Starting from a nice brunch on a sunny afternoon or you could take him to a food walk in your town so that he doesn't miss out on some delectable dishes. You can also arrange a dinner at home, food exclusively cooked by a chef for him. Yes, that is possible. Also, a personalised cutlery for him will add the perfect pomp to the show.

4. For the Father Who has a Sweet Tooth

Gifts for a father who has sweet tooth can be easily thought off, but a creative twist might just make it better. Start his day with sugary note, how? A breakfast platter decorated with everything sweet.

Who wouldn't love a nice almond croissant, cheesecakes, sorbets, puddings and pies after all?
