Make love, not dinner!
 
Each February, the chefs at Central Market give the popular takeaway “Dinner for Two” a romantic makeover just for Valentine’s Day.  
 
Each special menu includes tapered candles, a side of brioche rolls, dessert and the customer’s choice of a full-length new release film on DVD – either “The Proposal” starring Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock OR “500 Days of Summer” with Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Each of the meals is delivered in a bag with white rope handles, too.
