I am going to piggyback. I have been informed that I need to make reservations for Valentines Day, anyone know of a nicer restaurant that takes reservations.

By nicer, I mean a step up on Earls. I don't need to be going to Rouge or anything like that. I am married, not dating.

For any other fun date night sure, absolutely. But them anniversaries they're serious bidnezz

Think of how excited your wife would be to go someplace REALLY nice.

You might get a reputation as an incorrigible romantic, though. Maybe belch a lot to keep her expectations in line.

Have you ever tried the Home Tasting Room?

I thought the food there was fantastic

Plus I just looked it up for you, they have a four course Valentines meal that looks fantastic. I might have to reserve a spot

Take her to Muse. Enjoy some cocktails, a three course meal and split a bottle of wine. After dinner, place an order for dessert, leave your purses on the table and go to the washroom. The key here is not to go to the washroom, but instead sneak out the side door. Whatever you do, don't look directly at the camera they have mounted outside. Keep your heads down. Ensure the purses are filled with magazine clippings.

Another great restraunt that is one of my favorites is Trip, great food and the chef is more of a hard a$$ than Ramsey.
