Get A Prix-Fixe Dinner Of Delicious Italian
Prix-fixe menus are a bargain, offering you several courses at a price that’s lower than ordering everything separately. Cabbagetown’s favourite F’Amelia is known for its Northern Italian fare served in airy, vintage-chic surroundings. This Valentine’s Day, they are offering a 4-course prix-fixe menu for only $69! Enjoy handmade pasta, sumptuous desserts, and salumi, the chef’s specialty. You and your special someone will be transported to Italy from the comfort of Cabbagetown!
Take In Live Music At An Iconic Venue
The Phoenix is an iconic Toronto venue, and this Valentine’s Day will see indie-folk band Whitney play their stage. Live music is a wonderful way to bond with your significant other, and there is no better place than this intimate Cabbagetown venue. Recently praised in the New Yorker for their warm guitars and inviting falsetto, this Chicago duo will certainly set the mood for the most romantic day of the year!
Go For A Romantic Stroll At Allan Gardens Conservatory
A hidden Toronto gem, Allan Gardens Conservatory houses beautiful botanicals year-round!
Separated into six different gardens with a stunning glass dome in the center of the building, the conservatory combines rare flora with Toronto history. Plaques detailing the greenhouse’s 150-year existence dot the paths, so if your partner is a history buff this date is sure to please! Plant lovers are also bound to be impressed by the two Tropical Houses featuring orchids and colourful seasonal flowers, as well as the Arid House which contains nearly every type of cacti imaginable!
Impress Cocktail Lovers With A Great Drink
For a quirky date, you can’t beat Super Bargain, a colourful Tiki-themed bar that specializes in creative cocktails. Between the Hawaiian wallpaper and Pringles chips offered as sides, there are plenty of talking points for you and your date to seize upon! The clientele raves about the Paloma, a cocktail made of tequila and lime and grapefruit juices. We’re sure this is the most original watering hole in Cabbagetown!
We hope you and your special someone makes the most of your day together and don’t limit yourself to only our suggestions!
