The shortest month of the year is finally here and so is that one day out of the year where cheesy love cards, heart-shaped candies, and cuddly teddy bears are trending (as well as guilt, anxiety and pressure NOT TO SCREW IT UP.) Yep. Valentine’s Day has finally come and if you better NOT SCREW IT UP. So. Salt Lake Magazine is here to take the stress out of the Valentine’s Day 2K19. You may also want to update your Xanax prescription.
Yoga and Beer at The Gateway
Yoga and Beer. While the idea of doing a down dog with a belly full of suds seems like a surefire way to give you acid reflux, this is actually a thing.

All levels of yogis and beer drinkers are welcome. Mat rentals are $2. RSVP today!
Powder at The Waldorf Astoria
A plethora of Park City restaurants have just announced their Valentine’s Day specials among them Powder, Waldorf Astoria’s signature restaurant will be offering a three-course prix fixe starting with a choice of oysters on the half shell, wagyu bavette tatakem or organic frisee and mizuna. After a champagne intermezzo, enjoy a choice of grilled swordfish, rack of lamb or New York steak, followed by passion fruit mousse for dessert. The best part about this entire meal is the price at $69 per per person. We see what you did there. Powder.

We couldn’t do a post without mentioning a proper steakhouse in Park City. Grub Steak Restaurant will be serving a prix-fixe for two that is sure to impress. Start with a choice of baby romaine Caesar salad, wild rice and mushroom soup, or Grub Steak’s famed salad bar, followed by coffee-rubbed New York steak with crème fraiche.

Tin Angel
If you are just wanting to stay within Salt Lake, Tin Angel will be doing a “blind” dinner where one of the four courses is tasted while blindfolded. They only do this a few times a year and Valentines Day happens to be one of those times. Tin Angel has been around since 2007 and has been very well received by the Salt Lake community. The owners have a passion for quality, local ingredients and offering high end cuisine, wine, and cocktails. For more information visit them on their website. UPDATE: V-Day is sold out. See you are totally blowing it. BUT you might could make a make-good. The blind dinners run through the weekend. It’s going to be OK.
East Liberty Tap House
For those of you who are toughing the day out single we have a pretty rad option. East Liberty Tap House will be holding a Single Awareness Day (S.A.D) event on Febrauary 14th. They’ll be offering specials like a delicious (slightly bitter) Aperol Spritz cocktail, loaded garlic fries (never to be eaten with a date), single serving (unshare-able) desserts, and our popular untidy sloppy lamb and sloppy shroom sandwiches (eaten without polite napkin wiping).
Movie Night
Larry H. Miller Megaplex theaters are offering an all-inclusive movie package including dinner and dessert followed by a movie, popcorn and drinks with a chocolate gift for your special someone. The event starts on Valentine’s day at 5:45 and tickets are125$ per couple for the night.
Visit the Ice Castles
The Midway Ice Castles located just outside of Park City are a winter wonderland. A wonder of ice and lights, the Midway Ice Castle springs up during the coldest parts of the ski season. The castle is created by a flood of water that creates a sprawling maze of winter fun that weighs more than 25 million pounds. There are slides built into the ice, winter princesses (like your lady!) strolling through and light and fire shows at night.
Finally learn to dance dude
DF Dance Studio is hosting a dance night on Valentine’s Day. Absolutely no experience is required and lots of fun guaranteed. It says so on their website. Instructors will be on hand to help you sort out those two left feet. And maybe they can talk you into actually signing up for lessons.
