While big gatherings are still strongly discouraged and in some cases, entirely off the table, the beauty of Valentine’s Day is that it largely involves two people. (Unless you dig an “alternative lifestyle,” which hey, no judgment here.) So! To help you and your sweetheart have the most romantic day since Romeo and Juliet poisoned themselves and died in each other’s arms, here are a few deals around town to set your heart aflame.
On Feb 13 (5.30-10pm) and Feb 14 (5.30-8pm and 8.30-11pm), enjoy a glamorous and sumptuous Valentine's dinner at either of Intercontinental Beijing Sanlitun's restaurants. For RMB 1,999 per couple, the Michelin-starred CHAR Bar & Grill has a divine 5-course set dinner which includes French oysters and caviar, a scallop and sea urchin green pea puree, liquid porcini mushroom with herbed potatoes, asparagus, and truffle oil, a 1kg porterhouse steak, and an exquisite dessert of rose, pistachio, raspberry, vanilla, lychee, and yogurt. Meanwhile, Ying Chinese will be offering a 7-course Cantonese meal for RMB 1,314 per couple which includes a dish of avocado, egg white, and crab meat, plus Santis single malt whisky duck, poached romaine lettuce in soy-chili sauce, slow-cooked wagyu beef short rib, and more. If, however, you’d like to fully immerse yourself in the throes of Valentine’s Day passion, then from Feb 12-14, the hotel is offering a one-night staycation package for RMB 5,888 which includes a one-night stay in a Sanlitun suite, dinner for two at CHAR, and Champagne breakfast in bed for two.
