Roses are great – until you find out she’s allergic to pollen. Chocolates are classic – until you remember she’s vegan (there goes $30). Lingerie is romantic – until you accidentally buy one size to small and she spends the rest of the night in tears. Why stick with the same old Valentines Day routine when you know it’s bound to fail? This February 14th, take a hint from our list of unconventional date ideas for a night you won’t soon forget.

Looking for Dinner with a Kick?
If you’re sick of the overpriced (and boring) candle-lit dinner for two, give hibachi a try! At Shinto Japanese Steakhouse in Naperville, you and yours can enjoy unique cocktails and freshly flown-in sushi in addition to their signature hibachi. Shinto also features a variety of delicious bubbly. A bonus? Their environmentally-friendly, smokeless Hibachi grills allow you to enjoy the experience and leave without smelling like your dinner.

Looking for a Laugh?

The Cupid Players perform at the IO Theatre (formerly ImprovOlympic), located at 3541 N. Clark Street. Tickets can be purchased by calling (773) 880.0199.

A word of warning- there’s nothing romantic about this bloody Valentines homage. Tommy Guns Garage is located at 2114 South Wabash.
