Valentine’s Day in Chicago: Special Menus for Date Night In
@
Good morning, friends! Valentine’s Day is less than a week away – and since there were so many great suggestions on this gram, I thought I’d feature some of them here on the blog, too! Of course, this Valentine’s Day is a whole lot different than year’s past. While some people might feel comfortable with indoor dining, I know a lot of others are weary like me. And while I got a few suggestions for outdoor dining setups in those comments too, it’s also supposed to be a high of 10 degrees next Sunday. So, I thought it would be fun to focus on special take-out menus and meal kits for anyone looking for a cozy Valentine’s Day at home!
Of course, I know I am missing some, not to mention all of the amazing restaurants that are sticking to their normal menus next weekend. Even Adam and I are just ordering from The Warbler since we love them so much – holiday menu or not. But if you’re looking for something really special, I hope this list helps you out!
