Valentine’s Day is one of the biggest date nights of the year, and you know what that means — it’s going to be super people-y anywhere you go. If you’d rather avoid the sparkly-eyed masses (not to mention, waiting an hour to get into your favorite restaurant), consider a more intimate Valentine’s evening.

It happened in the thick South Carolina summer air of the 1940s, against a backdrop of oak trees dripping in Spanish moss: Allie and Noah fell in love. Such is the story of The Notebook, adapted from a Nicholas Sparks novel by the same name. And whether they admit it or not, no-one can resist this romance of the ages.
On Allie and Noah’s first night reconnecting at the restored Windsor Plantation, they eat steamed crab legs. So, in their honor, start your night off snacking on our elegant crab dip.
If you’re craving something more substantial, feast on a Southern bourbon pecan glazed ham — precisely the kind of indulgent dish the Hamiltons might have had on their table.
And, finally, whip up a batch of homemade caramel popcorn when you’re ready for something sweet. The popcorn harkens the couple’s first date at the movies, where they ordered the classic theater snack.
