> How to Prepare the Perfect Romantic Dinner

-
Dress to Impress.
Make sure your kitchen, utensils and apron are clean before beginning to cook. Then have a change of clothes so the cook doesn’t smell like the cooked. -
Read the Recipe.
Know what you’re cooking (even practice before hand) so that you have no unexpected surprises. You can find great recipes under the cooking section of the Clancy’s website. -
Tease their Taste Buds.
Serve an appetizer or two to give them a sneak peak into what’s coming next, the main meal. -
Set the Mood.
Or, at least the table. Candles? No Candles? Your call, but a centerpiece is always a nice addition to the table. -
Meat their Expectations.
If you’re cooking a steak, ask your date how they like their meat cooked, and be prepared to cook it that way. -
Pair Up.
Do your research and get a wine that goes best with what you’re cooking. It’s not always as simple as red meat, red wine. -
Don’t Forget Dessert.
The perfect way to end a meal, Clancy’s has a wide variety of individual desserts and pastries or lava cakes, perfect for sharing.
