Cucina Morini
901 4th Street NW
The bad news is the hands-on Pasta Making Class with Chef Matt Adler and 4-course prix fixe Valentine’s Day Dinner are already sold out.

Treat a loved one to an elevated experience this Valentine’s Day with a five-course menu, designed by Chef Richard Sandoval and Executive Chef Carlos Camacho, at dLeña.

Kaché (New Entry!)
510 K Street NW
On February 11th at Kaché DC, gather for “The Loving Choice“: an evening of conversation shaped by curiosity, honesty, and lived experience. This is a room for people who are still engaging love thoughtfully. The ones still paying attention to how their choices ripple through relationships, work, and self-trust. Together, Alex Elle, Angel Gregorio, and Rob Hill Sr., will be in conversation-not performing, not selling anything-just telling the truth about how loving choices show up in real life: in relationships, in work, and in the quiet moments when nobody’s watching. Learn more and make your reservations at resy.com.
