Valentine's Day Dinner Quotes
- "Valentine's Day, like New Year's Eve, is a night to stay home. It’s a time when restaurants charge a premium for seats, and the expectations generated by the price are rarely met." SFGate.com: Valentine's Day Dinning? Stay Home
- "Valentine's day has become all about eating out and failure to secure a reasonable booking on the 14th can be cited, if not as grounds for divorce, at least for weapons-grade recrimination for the rest of the year." The Guardian: We can fit you in after 10
- "If you're choosing the restaurant, run it past three platonic girlfriends. You might love the local trattoria for its friendly waiters and free Limoncello, but it's the ladies who remember bad lighting, dingy bathrooms and day-old fruit garnishes." Yahoo!: Valentine's dinner Etiquette
