Not really a Valentines event. More an event for lovers of gourmet food (which all happen to be thought of as aphrodisiacs) – no hearts of flower petals scattered and a general encouragement to gather large groups as well as couples. A love in with a bit of a difference for those of you avoiding a slush fest.
