Valentine’s Day has come and gone, but that doesn’t mean that love should no longer be celebrated. True love is not something that is fleeting, but couples also have to put some effort into keeping the relationship exciting. One way to keep the flames burning is through romantic dates – like candlelit dinners in a secluded corner of a topnotch restaurant. However, our busy work schedules plus the hassle of traffic can put a damper on any thought of a romantic night out, with good food and wine to boot.
After all, a celebration of love would not really be complete without the right food and drink to complement it. So instead of spending grueling hours on the road just to get to the restaurant that also took you ages to reserve a spot for, you’d be better off creating an intimate setup in a place where the heart truly belongs: the home.
And here is where Rustan’s Supermarket and Marketplace by Rustan’s has got you covered with its mouthwatering, ready-to-eat dishes and easy, step-by-step recipes that will surely impress your man. After all, it is said that the easiest way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.
Turn your home into an intimate, relaxing place by adding little touches like scented candles or a vase of flowers, with the lights turned down while music softly plays in the background. Complement the setting with Marketplace by Rustan’s wonderful menu that puts the fancy in your dinner date. The gourmet go-to even features serving suggestions that couples or families can enjoy at home by simply ordering at its cooked food section. For instance, Slow Roasted Beef Rib-eye, White Truffle Macaroni and Cheese, Roasted Squash and Rosemary, Truffled Mashed Potatoes, Herb Roasted Pork Loin, Sweet Glazed Eggplant, Garlic and Parsley Roasted Potatoes, Crisp French Green Beans, White Miso Glazed Salmon, and brownies.
Thinking of cooking up a storm to impress? Nothing beats a dinner (or breakfast) made with love and served right in the comfort of your home. Rustan’s Supermarket helps you brave the kitchen and makes it extra easy with a line-up of appetizing dishes with full recipes that you can download. It even displays the ingredients set around the stores so you’d know exactly what to get and where to go when you shop.
The Easy as Pie menu features delectable Black Forrest French Toast with Nutella filling, Berry Parfait with Coconut Whip Cream, Baked Eggs in cream with Heart shaped toasts, Strawberry Shortcake, Grape Ricotta Crostini, Slow-cooked shortribs with Gremolata, Truffled Carbonara with fresh mushrooms and pancetta, Baked Eggplant Parmesan Stacks, and Orange Glazed Scallops.
All these are available until February 29, so head over to Marketplace by Rustan’s, and visit the website www.rustansfresh.com/easy-as-pie before shopping at Rustan’s Supermarket for a February love affair to remember.
