Recipes For a Less Cliche V-Day

The Cliché: Chocolate Dipped Strawberries and Fondue Why it’s cliché: We get it—chocolate is an aphrodisiac. The solution: Mexican–inspired fondue with unique things to dip. The recipe: - Break up several ounces of your choice of chocolate (dark chocolate preferred). - For every two ounces of dark chocolate add one ounce of Abuelita (chocolate mix found in specialty isle of the grocery store). - Place a metal bowl in a larger pot of boiling water, stir frequently to stop from overheating the chocolate. - Quickly dip potato chips and dried mango into the mixture. Add extra cayenne for garnish if desired.

However, they were happy to get to know each other better over brunch at Red Owl Tavern.
