5 Valentine’s Day movies and Charlotte food pairings

There’s something about Valentine’s Day that makes me nostalgic for the days when I handpicked Disney princess cards for my BFFs. Sigh. Those days were just so simple. Can we rewind?

This year, if you’re not in the mood to fight crowds, reservation lists and would rather rock sweats and hide under your covers in the comfort of your own home – you’ve come to the right place. Here are some pretty fab local dishes that you can grab to-go or will inspire the coziest night-in:

The Great Gatsby + Macarons from Amelie’s

Leonardo DiCaprio and dessert? Count this girl in.

When Harry Met Sally + Cheese Pizza from Pizzeria Omaggio

Most definitely one of my all-time favorite chick flicks. Throw in some pizza and beers and we’re really talkin’.

Breakfast at Tiffany’s + Cheese Plate from Foxcroft Wine Co

When in doubt Audrey Hepburn and cheese.

Trainwreck + Pad Thai from Co

Amy Schumer and noodles just get me.

Bridesmaids + Burrito from Cantina 1511

Maybe just don’t watch the restaurant scene while eating, just a thought.
