Classic Romance Menu:
Baked Brie with Honey & Cranberries
Start your romantic evening with a warm, melty wheel of brie, drizzled with honey and topped with tart cranberries. Perfectly paired with crisp crackers or sliced baguette, this appetizer is a showstopper that feels elegant and indulgent.
Creamy Chicken with White Wine Sauce
Tender chicken breast smothered in a luscious white wine cream sauce — rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. This main dish pairs beautifully with the set Parmesan polenta, creating a sophisticated centerpiece for your Valentine’s dinner.
Set Parmesan Polenta
Sliceable and elegant, this firm Parmesan polenta adds structure to your plate, balancing the creamy chicken sauce. Serve warm, optionally lightly pan-seared for a golden edge, for a refined, restaurant-style presentation.

A simple yet beautiful side, roasted asparagus or green beans add freshness and vibrant color to the table. Tossed with olive oil, salt, and pepper, these vegetables are easy to prepare and pair perfectly with your creamy main course.

Decadent, molten chocolate lava cakes for dessert — slightly cut open to reveal the flowing chocolate, dusted with powdered sugar, adorned with fresh berries, and paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. A sweet finish that’s both indulgent and romantic.
Sparkling Cranberry Mocktail
Raise a glass with a festive, sparkling cranberry mocktail. Tart, sweet, and bubbly, this drink completes your Valentine’s Day menu and adds a touch of celebratory sparkle to your dinner for two.
