Valentine's Day 2010
Valentine’s Day dinner at The Fireplace with that special someone is an evening to remember. The warm glow of the roaring fireplace mixed with festive decorations make for the perfect romantic experience. If our aphrodisiac inspired menu and sparkling wine flights don’t inspire you enough, maybe a plate of chocolate dipped strawberries will.
