Valentines: There are some cynics out there but we are not among them. Whoever decided to pop a day of romance, indulgence and pleasure into the middle of the dull month of February deserves a sainthood.

So we've dusted off our tables for two, the bubbles are on ice and we've spent the last week devising a play list of romantic yet bearable tunes.

Our chef Olly has also been busy dreaming up a menu of tasty morsels for sharing (or fighting over depending on the stage of your relationship). All this delicious food (below) for a fabulous £28 a head. He's also devised some great vegetarian variations on all of the below - please get in touch for details.

The menu will run on Friday and Saturday (13th and 14th) in case you just can't wait to celebrate.
