Quirky, unique and totally romantic, you can eat steak that has been branded with your and your loved one’s initials. The beautiful thing about this gift is that it will last for years, so when it comes to gifts that show commitment, the steaks are high…
Dining Out IOU – gift for a foodie
Dining out on Valentine’s Day can be a bit passé; you and dozens of other couples sit self-consciously in a restaurant that is full to capacity and that has had the audacity to add an extra ten 10% on everything because it’s a “special menu”.
There’s tremendous pressure to talk in hushed tones, hold hands and stare at each other lovingly across the table. If you are unwilling, or unable, to conform to the demands of Valentine’s Day dining, why not go off-piste?
Get takeaway or cook a lovely meal for Valentine’s Day and, if you really must eat out, get a voucher or IOU for your favourite restaurant so that you can visit on a day that suits you.
