ROMANCE ON MENU AT WINE BAR

IF YOU love her, tell her.

But if you really really love her, take her to the "Wine Bar and Bistro" in South Court this Valentine's Day. Deal's newest venue has created a scrumptious menu to tempt your taste buds - especially for the most romantic night of the year.

On arrival you and your sweetheart will be treated to a cool glass of bubbly prosecco, and when you are seated you can choose your starters which include king prawn and avocado salad, herbed cream cheese roulade with brown bread or smoked pork and apricot terrine with warm bread and chutney.

And as food is the way to someone's heart, be tempted by chargrilled sirloin steak, served with saute potatoes, peppercorn sauce and fresh vegetables or grilled fillet of salmon, served with crushed new potatoes, artichoke hearts and prawn butter.

Vegetarians will love a starter of tomato, red onion, goats cheese and basil bruschetta finished with herb oil and wild mushroom, spinach and mascarpone lasagne, served with salad and warm bread. If desserts are your passion, indulge in red berry and whipped cream meringue with white chocolate shavings and raspberry coulis, Baileys cheesecake or poached pear with vanilla pod ice cream and toffee sauce.

Brian Short, owner of The "Wine Bar and Bistro" said: “We opened in October with the aim of creating somewhere nice and different where we ourselves would like to go to have a meal a drink and listen to music taking in a classy ambience.”

The venue has a wide selection of food, wines and cocktails to make your night extra special.

And as they know you'll love your night so much, you'll want to return for live music on Wednesdays or jazz on Sundays.

The Valentine's menu costs £29.95 per person and a complimentary Valentine's Day gift is also included for the ladies.
