Valentine’s Day 2021? Challenge accepted!

As February 14 approaches, love is in the air at monbento®!

This year, Valentine’s Day will probably be very special … with closed restaurants and limited activities, it is very difficult to organize the traditional romantic date. But that is not a reason to give up on festivity! Here are some tips to help you organize a successful Valentine’s Day at home!

 

          1. Dinner:

Apprentice cooks, it’s time to impress your loved one! 2020 gave us a lot of time and opportunities to learn how to cook new recipes, improve the ones we already knew and try chefs’ techniques. Now is time to apply what you learned!

To do so, choose a recipe that will please both your taste buds and your partner’s ones. Favor local and seasonal products to enhance the tastes: kale, cabbage, responsibly fished scallops, local cheese, apples and oranges, yellow lemon … depending on what your favorite market offers. And to bring a unique note to your dish, add a little bit of truffle in a soup, mashed potatoes, or even a chocolate lava cake: flavors guaranteed!

          2. Atmosphere:

A special Valentine’s Day requires a unique atmosphere! How about organizing a picnic in your living room? Move the sofas and coffee tables and lay out a colorful and comfortable plaid on the floor, surrounded by the sofa pillows. Bring the plants closer to create a nature environment, light some candles to bring a warm light and put a soft background music. Dinner time is approaching, it’s time to set the table! In the spotlight, your complete on-the-go set: a beautifully laid bento box, to-go cutlery set, reusable bottle and small sauce cups to bring even more flavors to your dish … may dinner begin!

          3. Gifts :

Even if this Valentine’s Day will surely look like no other, there is one tradition we can still honor: indulge our significant other with an unforgettable gift! We often lean on flowers on this special day, but they fade so quickly … that’s why this year, monbento® invites you to offer flowers on a bento box! Discover the MB Original graphic Poppy, decorated with delicate poppies and still fitted with two airtight compartments, for convenient on-the-go lunches! In addition, you can complete this lunch box with the MB Pochette graphic Poppy bento bag! With its elegant red color, its pattern matching the lunch box, and its practical handle, it will be perfect to carry your lunch everywhere with you!

Happy Valentine’s Day to all of you!
