OT: restaurant for valentines day

@uconnphil2016 .

Remember your romantic getaway to the Cape this past fall?

The one where you were on these message boards A LOT?

If by chance you pull off any decent reservation, resist all temptation to take out your phone and give us updates.
The fact @UCYamsMD liked this made me laugh out loud.

I hear Purdue is working hard on developing one.

There are not going to be many happy couples in Husky Land Valentine's Day seeing we play Houston, who will probably destroy us without two of our best players. That will create some bad moods. Hoping Alterique comes back and at least give us a chance.

Looking for a Hartford area spot (I’m in Glastonbury). I’d recommended to the old lady that we take a ride to Bufalina but that didn’t elicit much excitement. I’m interested in something nice, but I can’t be paying Union League Cafe prices

I got this one Phil, where as you are taking the old lady my first suggestion was The Red Dog Saloon on the Middletown Middlefield line. A tad late though as they recently went out of business.
All is not lost though as a nice country ride through the back roads of Glastonbury, Hebron etc will take you through Windam and into Chaplin. Here you will find The Bach Dor Cafe home of the $2.00 roast beef dinner. No that is not a typo, two dollars gets you roast beef, mashed potatoes, gravy and a veggie. If it is a nice day you and the old lady can sit out on the deck and admire the many shiny vehicles always on display.
Bon apppetit and happy valentines day.
 
Can you cook?

If so, skip the silly amateur night and make this for her: Steak Diane

You can use beef stock instead of making the veal stock and I've found the meat cooking time needs to be greatly increased if you don't want something bloody (I love medium rare and the first time I made it to the recipe times, it was blue.)

I really can't imagine ever going out to a restaurant on Valentines Day. I've never had a good experience no matter how much I spent. Too crowded, bad attention from servers and the experience never lives up to the hype.


Similar to New Years Eve, My husband called it amature night.

True on both.

Valentine's Day dinners are filled with a bunch of couples trying to overcompensate and definitely overpaying for "special" menus surrounded by other couples doing the same thing.

Palindrome Alert!
Yeah, they didn't really put much thought into that one when they opened the second spot! Never been to Avert but every time I'm home I try to get up to West Hartford to one of those places.
