valentine's day at food matters


Not Your Momma's Valentine's Day

Nothing dyed red or pink.

No heart-shaped food.

No chocolate fountains.

No overpriced menus.

This is our solemn vow.

This year Valentine's Day falls on a Monday, a day we would normally be closed. So we have decided to open the private dining room for

twenty peoplesixteen people and one big food orgy. And while there will be no tacky commercialism you can rest assured that we will eat and drink well. Simple, sultry ingredients prepared and served humbly by the two of us. We hope you'll join us.

with love,

christy and tom
