With COVID-19 cases peaking and confusion surrounding the vaccine rollout, you might feel stuck trying to decide what to do for Valentine’s Day this year. Quite a few Dallas restaurants are offering special dine-in meals, but many of us are simply not ready to dine in.
That doesn’t mean you have to give up on a great evening with your sweetie.
Dallas restaurants are offering some memorable treats, gifts and experiences to help you get closer to your loved one while staying distant from everyone else. Some of the best are listed here and we’ve also rounded up some restaurants offering heart-shaped pizzas.
Dallas chocolatiers are certainly capitalizing on the chocolate bomb movement. And to that, we say Good for them! In a rough year, some are working around the clock to fulfill our insatiable chocolate bomb needs.
Haute Sweets Patisserie is trying to make up ground after an unfortunate accident at their store that shut down their kitchen. This craze caught us by surprise, owner and chef of Haute Sweets Tida Pichakron says. Now that we have the kitchen 90% repaired from the accident, we have been playing catch-up on remaking all of the holiday treats we lost and filling all of the orders for these bombs. It s been a blessing for us to help bring in much-needed revenue to help us recover.
After this extended season of partial solitude, it s interesting to think about what long-term effects it may have on our tolerance for loud, crowded and tight spaces. After this passes, will it bother us if the next table is in our elbow space? Will large family gatherings roar back, or will we stretch out this imposed distance into a regular routine? Perhaps tolerances will have shifted. Probably not, though.
But a few things will never change, such as the comfort of baked goods and treats around the holidays, when, thankfully, calories don t count. And then there s an explosion of sparkling Christmas lights throughout a neighborhood; it just has a strange, happy effect on people.
