It doesn’t happen often, but when Valentine’s Day and Ash Wednesday coincide, we don’t know what to do. As a town, we’re exhausted from our Carnival festivities and about half of us are swearing off meat.
So what’s a date-loving couple to do? The answer is simple: think outside the parade.
NOBA’s presentation of Les Ballets de Monte Carlo’s “Roméo et Juliette” offers a restful yet romantic evening activity for couples (and friends). Top it off with a fun and fishy dinner at one of your favorite spots, whether it’s Briquette’s oysters or Zea’s strawberries and champagne special.
