Why should we have to celebrate Valentine's Day on Valentine's Day? Scrambling to make dinner reservations, flower deliveries, cupcakery orders, buy gifts of significance, all on one of the most frantic days of the year. And for some poor bastards, the future of their relationship hinges on their V-Day performance. Really, who needs that kind of pressure? Here are two great options, not on Valentine's Day, with something for everyone.
Fugaise is booked for Valentine's Day but, because it falls on a Saturday this year, they're offering two special menus for Thursday, Friday and Saturday (February 12th-14th). One is an elegant a la carte menu ($9.00-$32.00) and the other is an extravagant six-course tasting menu ($75.00, with optional $55.00 wine pairing). Click here to see these special menus and to reserve your table.
On Sunday, February 15th, the increasingly popular Gastro Non Grata presents their 8th installment at the Triple Rock. Sample Duvel beer, snack on samples from the Modern Cafe, nosh on cupcakes from Miel y Leche, throw a number in the Clancy's meat raffle and rock out to 4 local bands, including Gospel Gossip. FREE, 6:00pm-9:00pm.
La Belle Vie is offering special menus on Friday and Saturday too. (Shameless plug, I know.)

Not shameless, helpful! Tell Bill to give a girl a heads-up next time.

Hmmm...I'll just try to keep you in the loop.
Speaking of which, let's get together. I really wanna pursue that thing we talked about.
