With Valentine's Day approaching, this month's Dinner Club menu is dedicated to celebrating the love of good food! You don't need to be in a relationship to share loving feelings on this holiday. If you don't have a partner in the club to enjoy this romantic meal with, you can still enjoy the companionship of friends who share your passion for food. The recipes require more effort than normal, but don't all things that are worth having?
Don't forget to entice all the senses as you plan this romantic dinner.
- Play soft, romantic music throughout meal.
- Choose romantic flowers for your table centerpiece. A centerpiece made of roses usually speaks love and romance in all languages.
- Set the table with your finest china and crystal.
- Use elegant linens to dress up your table. A garnet, velour cloth covered with an antique gold, striped satin topper would be both dramatic and romantic.
- Use candles of varying heights to illuminate the dining room and table.
- Ask members to dress in their most elegant clothing for the occasion. This will be a special evening.
