On Valentine's Day, more than 30% of all Americans will eat at a restaurant, making it the second most
popular holiday for dining out, after Mother's Day. When numbers are broken down by age, it is not surprising to see
that for people between the ages of 25 and 34, the numbers are much higher, with 41% of people dining at a
restaurant on February 14. The highest numbers are among the 18-24 year olds, with 47% percent heading out to
eat. Those who dine out will spend an average of $62 dollars on dinner, while possibly spending more on gifts
such as chocolates and flowers. OpenTable.com is a great way to check for
reservations are some of your favorite restaurants across the country and the world.
Though dining out can be fun and romantic, for some lovebirds there is nothing as romantic as a home-cooked meal shared across a table for two. Cooking together or cooking for a loved one can be a more romantic and thoughtful gift than a box of chocolates, for those who enjoy cooking.
