Romance on a platter



Whispering ‘sweet nothings’ over a glass of champagne with some mood music in the background can make Valentine’s Day complete.Whispering ‘sweet nothings’ over a glass of champagne with some mood music in the background can make Valentine’s Day complete.

FLOWERS are fantastic, chocolates are delicious – but for a truly memorable Valentine’s Day nothing beats the seduction of a great meal.
Pick the location – there is no shortage of romantic cafes and restaurants throughout the beautiful Yarra Valley.
Your Valentine’s Day escape doesn’t have to cost a fortune either.
A light lunch with a glass of wine overlooking magnificent mountain or valley views can be as seductive as a three-course silver service dinner in one of the many top-class restaurants in the region.
For a more relaxed Valentine’s Day, why not visit one of the growing number of gourmet food stores popping up with a fabulous array of foods from gourmet quiches, breads and cheeses to tempting cakes.
Put together a picnic lunch of his or her favourites then choose a romantic, secluded spot.
Add some mood music, a glass of champagne and a sprinkling of whispered ‘sweet nothings’ and you have the makings of a Valentine’s Day you will never forget.
