Romantic Valentine's Dinner at Home

There's no doubt that going out for a fancy dinner is a popular Valentine's Day activity, but it's also a pricey one! It's fun to get dressed up and go out on the town but sometimes staying at home can be just as special. A fancy dinner doesn't have to cost a fortune or take you out of your comfy clothes. For couples who prefer a cozy night in over making reservations, we have a few ideas to make your Valentine's Day dinner super special.

Making things fancy starts with setting the mood. Bring out the special dishes and crystal stemware if you have it. Set the table with layers of red and pink and don't forget a centerpiece. Candles or flowers, it really doesn't matter as long as you love it.

Now, to start your meal off right, choose an artisan bread and a simply dressed salad. Remember to keep your portions small so you have room for all of the deliciousness about to happen. To make your job easier, Kuhn's offers pre-made salads as well as Fresh Express Salad Blends. You can also shop for all of your favorite salad ingredients in our produce section.

Kuhn's also has a wide selection of artisan breads, from Pumpernickel to Italian baked fresh in our bakery! No matter your tastes, you're sure to find exactly what you are looking for.
