Valenitne's Day!!! Day of love, hugs and kisses.
But after 5 years of living together, Ricky and I get plenty of love, hugs and kisses everyday. So how do you make this on day special-er? We discussed the romantic possibilities and decided that instead of getting each other presents, we'd just save the money to take a trip together in the future! Hey, why not be more practical?
As for the standard dinner, we decided to take care of that as well before actual Valentine's day. I mean, why get ripped off and pay more for a mass cooked meal at a nice restaurant? So we made reservations last Friday at Danube, one of the best (and most expensive) restaurants in the City. We ordered the tasting menu....yummy! I started with the tuna sashimi then the lobster then the NY strip with foie gras and the souffle. Ricky also started with the tuna sashimi, then the halibut, then veal schnitzel and finally also the souffle. Yummm.....
While we didn't plan to go out to dinner again we did! Haha...we went to Hoboken to return the Wedding Crashers DVD and was lucky enough to catch a car just vacating it's parking spot! It was just too good to be true, so we decided to take it first, then think. We walked tover to La Isla, the best cuban restaurant ever and since it was not crowded (for once) we decided to celebrate Valentine's day there. While it's a very casual hole in the wall restaurant, we had candlelight and flowers on the table. It was still very romantic and I just LOVE the food there! I also got a dozen roses from Ricky. So they were from thue PATH train guy, so what!? Why overpay for the same flowers and nicer packaging..I put them ina vase and they look beautiful, very fresh! Overall, it was a great V-Day. :)
