You do know you don’t have to go to a restaurant on Valentine’s Day, right? You could take a cooking class together. That’s romantic and useful. And there are plenty of classes to choose from at the French Culinary Institute around the 14th. This year, they’ve got a Artisanal Bread Baking class, and a Wine Class for beginners. If you’re not looking to get your hands dirty, you could book a table in the Monte Bello Dining Room inside the school, where FCI students will prepare a meal just for the occasion with wine pairings to boot.
