Valentine’s Meal: Our Ideas

As Valentine’s Day approaches, couples eagerly seek ways to create a romantic and memorable evening via the Valentine’s meal.

A well-prepared meal is a cornerstone of any Valentine’s Day celebration, setting the stage for an evening of intimacy, connection and culinary delights. 

Whether you’re planning a cosy night in or a grand romantic dinner, we at Top Table here to give you some tips that ensure success. 

A Romantic 3-Course Meal: Winning Appetisers

Our Valentine’s recipes are kicked off by winning appetisers. In order to set the mood, you could start with light and refreshing appetisers. For an elegant and sophisticated spread, consider a trio of foie gras terrine, smoked salmon crostini and marinated olives. 

Each bite is guaranteed to tantalise the palate and prepare your taste buds for the culinary adventure ahead.

The Main Course: A Hearty Feast for Two

The main course is the foundation of your Valentine’s meal. There are a number of options as far as the main course is concerned. This one, however, is likely to make a lasting impression:

  • A classic grilled steak, seared to perfection with a hint of rosemary and garlic
  • Creamy mashed potatoes
  • Roasted vegetables

If seafood is your love language, opt for a succulent lobster tail, poached to tender perfection and served with a rich lobster bisque and a side of steamed asparagus. 

Finally, those reading this who are vegan have a wealth of options to choose from. 

Linguine with avocado, tomato and lime, for example, is a tasty and elegant dish making use of fantastic vegan-friendly ingredients.

A Sweet Ending: A Chocolate Truffle Fondue

A list of Valentine’s day meals would not be complete without mentioning dessert. For pudding, why not indulge in a decadent chocolate truffle fondue for a sweet and romantic conclusion to your Valentine’s meal. 

Melt your favourite chocolate to a silky consistency and provide an array of dipping options, such as fresh strawberries, marshmallows and mini marshmallows.
