We’ll be the first to admit smoked turkey and ribs aren’t the first dishes you think of for a romantic night out. The Valley Smoke crew is here to change your mind and expand your perspective before you begin planning your next date. At the end of the day, a perfect first date all comes down to the atmosphere and quality of food and drinks you order. A fancy filet and expensive bottle of wine are great, but the right partner will enjoy something a little more approachable. Don’t get us wrong, Valley Smoke doesn’t cut corners when it comes to experience and approach. If you’re up in the air about choosing BBQ, we’re here to close the case for you and your date.
Shareable Plates are the Perfect Conversation Starter
First dates are all about getting to know the person sitting across from you. No dining experience can bring you closer than splitting a few starters and an entree. This is a great time to explore foods outside your comfort zone! Here are a few of our top choices:
- Roast Beet Salad with Pecan, Pears, Georgia Blue Cheese/, Baby Spinach and Local Honey Sherry Vinaigrette
- Oak Smoked Burrata with Arugula, Tomato Peach Compote, Olive Oil, Basil and Grilled Baguette
- ‘Que for 2 that comes with a 3 Meat Combo and 3 Sides
