In case you haven’t noticed the recent explosion of pink, red, and heart-shaped boxes of chocolates, we’re here to remind you that Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. To save you from a night of sleeping on the couch, Trulia's created a list of the best cities to dine with your Valentine. Last year, they took a look at the “Best Eating Towns and Drinking Towns” across America – metropolitan areas with the highest density of restaurants and bars. The usual suspects showed up (New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles), but they wondered about the rest of the country.
They took that data and reimagined it to include a romance factor that considers how exciting, romantic, delicious or interesting the food and bar scenes are. After tallying up the points, here are the best places from around the country for you and your loved one to hit the town. If you’re lucky enough to call one of these cities your home, don’t miss out! If not, there’s always time for a romantic jet-set weekend with your special someone. On of the top ten cities is Denver!
Denver:
Nicknamed the “Mile High City,” Denver is nestled in the Rocky Mountains and gets 300 days of annual sunshine, making it a great year-round destination. Its urban setting in close proximity to the hiking, skiing, and natural beauty of the Colorado Rockies means there’s something for everyone.
On the food and drink front, it’s best known for its breweries—Coors, anyone?—and the city welcomes visitors from around the world when it hosts the annual Great American Beer Festival each fall. Denver is also famous for its dedication to New Mexican cuisine, especially green and red chile sauces and the Denver Omelette. A pioneer town in more ways than one, Denver was also the birthplace of fast food chains Chipotle Mexican Grill, Quizno’s, and Smashburger. For Valentine’s Day, though, we humbly suggest that you try some fancier fare at one of the innovative chef-owned restaurants that are popping up all over the city.
