    Default Valentine's Day Dinner Ideas

    I've been going to Buon Giorno for Valentine's dinner for the last 2 years. They have a 3 course meal with glass of wine for around $100 per couple. Its pretty good, and I'd recommend it.

    Looking for something new this year. Does anyone know restaurants that have special deals on V Day?

    One year I took my lady to the zoo, sounds corny but it was bad ass. I booked it online and for an extra $15 I got the additional monkey toy (no idea what it was at the time). We ate in the conservatory amongst all the greenery at our own private table on the walkway and a waiter came around to bring us drinks. Then for the main course we got up and took our food buffet style, went back to our table and another waitress brought by this cool toy monkey that screams when you shake it. My date loved it, I thought it was great. Much better and more private than being table to table with someone else in a regular restaurant.

    Also right before supper they did a quick show where they talked about reproductive qualities of some animals and passed around a petrified whale penis which had been broken (during life) at some point. This was in the auditorium.

    We usually go to River Cafe, food is awesome, and walk around the park afterwards... it can be iffy though, last 2 times we went for valentines, it was -30*C Not so romantic.

    They're certainly big, but I don't know if they are the BEST I've tasted.

    I would honestly eat anything, I have no idea what's good food and what's not. Sorry, I couldn't tell you.

    The Luigi Bosca Malbec is nice, as is the Clancy's Legendary Shiraz. Both are my personal favs and are around $50.

    I can confirm this. I've been there with two different girls, both loved it. The food is great too.
