In a Valentine's Day survey from OpenTable.com, 66 percent of respondents say French and Italian are the two most romantic cuisines in the world.
There's no denying that dinner in a cozy bistro or a homey trattoria sets a certain mood, but my personal pick for most romantic cuisine might just have to be Moroccan - rich lamb dishes spiced with cinnamon, shared platters of fruit-and nut-studded couscous, desserts scented with rosewater and mint, slices of oranges splashed with perfume-y orange flower water, steaming hot tea from intricately carved silver pots. Especially if you get to lounge on embroidered cushions on the floor. But a big tray of sushi and other Japanese tidbits à deux would be a close second - a tangle of seaweed salad, a spill of jewel-like salmon roe, slippery mouthfuls of briney sea urchin. Of course, if you really want to seduce me, you'd fry me a chicken and bake a coconut cake!
What do you think is the most romantic cuisine?

For me though nothing beats a picnic basket of home cookin' and a bottle of wine to share.
