- Bad Wolf Coffee
We food writers never feel so loved as when our inboxes are full of Valentine’s Day pitches from PR people. We have lots of events for Valentine’s Day, and a few against it; one of them will be just right for you and your sweetie. Starting with the picture above, from Bad Wolf Coffee’s baker extraordinaire, Jonathan Ory (who I wrote about here), $65 gets you a whole box of his wonderful handmade treats including a chocolate-raspberry cake, macaroons, marshmallows, and his much-loved, quick-to-sell-out chocolate caneles. Preorders need to be in by February 11; he says he may have a few extras on the day of, but expects them to go quickly. Hey, if he could mass produce the stuff, he wouldn’t be him, and if mass produced was good enough for your beloved, you wouldn’t be so special. More:
• Atwood Cafe, which has recently reworked its menu, will have a four-course heart menu including hearts of palm with crab, artichoke hearts, and—you didn’t think it was all going to be metaphorical—a pig heart and pork tenderloin main course. It’s $55 per person, plus $20 for pairings.
• Deleece will have a three-course, $100-per-couple prix fixe menu, ending with chocolate fondue for two.
