Many couples struggle to find the time they need between their work schedules and family obligations. It is vital to make time for your partner and have fun. You might find it easier to plan a romantic meal than you realize.
These are some suggestions for couples who want to plan a romantic dinner together.
– Arrange “alone”Time. If you have children, consider letting them spend the night at a family member or friend. Hire a sitter to entertain your children if you don’t have the time.
Make sure your partner knows about the surprise dinner. Leave an invitation on your partner’s pillow if you want to tell them about your plans.
Set the scene. When your partner comes, make sure your home is romantic. You can let your partner know you have done something special by arranging roses and candles. Place china, beautiful stemware, and your favorite linens at the table.
– Choose a delicious wine. It is one of the most enjoyable pleasures in life to have a conversation over a great wine. So, enjoy something light and refreshing. The 2007 Clos du Bois Rosé (closdubois.com) proves a delicate, floral wine with hints of wild strawberries and ripe watermelon. This wine is perfect for romantic nights, thanks to its bright acidity and rosy colour. Better yet, dry rosés work with most food pairings, whether you’re planning an all-chocolate menu, ethnic food or more traditional fare.
Play safe when it comes to food. It’s not the right time to try making your own pasta gnocchi. Or, you can order take-out at a favorite restaurant. Before you serve food, be sure to transfer it to attractive dishes. Don’t forget appetizers. For help in putting together a beautiful cheese plate, visit your local cheese shop.
Dress up. If you are wearing jeans and a worn-out T-shirt, a kuskus made with spicy vegetables will look less elegant. It doesn’t matter if you feel uncomfortable. However, make sure to put some effort into how you look.
You can make romantic dinners enjoyable and regular by knowing the right foods, wines, and settings. Visit the Clos du Bois website at closdubois.com to find great recipes and wine pairing suggestions for every season.
