Valentine’s Day: On a seductive mission!
Retour à la vie de quartier

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and whether you’re the type to plan a memorable evening or run out and buy a card and a box of chocolates at the last minute (we won’t judge, we promise), we’ve put together a short list of local suggestions to please your Valentine, or Valentines!

For gourmands who know that love comes through the stomach

 

PASSION MEAL BOXES

Verdun Beef is playing Cupid’s gourmet game this year with its Boîte de l’amour, a feast tailor-made for couples who like to feast and chill in the comfort of their own home. Imagine: restaurant-quality flavors, but without the need to make reservations, dress up in fancy clothes or endure the sidelong glances of other lovebirds.

A good meal, your ideal setup (hello sofa and perfect playlist), and no one to judge whether you end up sharing the last bite with a fork… or your fingers. 😏

📍 4800 Wellington

For its part, Pizza 900 offers a gift box of gourmet products in Mediterranean flavors, perfect for adding a touch of sunshine to your Valentine’s Day. Already packed and bursting with flavor, it contains everything you need for a feast worthy of a romantic dinner under the olive trees: fleshy olives, a piquant oil that spices up both the plate and the evening, and a balsamic vinegar so refined it could almost write poetry…

A gift that says “I love you” with a slight Italian accent!

POUR UNE SORTIE AU RESTO

FOR A RESTAURANT DATE

Some restaurants in the Well are going all out for Valentine’s Day with table d’hôte menus designed to seduce hearts and stomachs alike. Looking for an elegant, hushed evening? Rita Restaurant awaits you for a candlelit dinner, where every bite is a declaration of love to Italian cuisine. More of a spice and adventure team? Street Monkeys takes you on a whirlwind of Cambodian flavors that will awaken your taste buds… and maybe even a few flames of passion. 🔥

Whatever you fancy, find yourself a resto that matches your evening’s vibe, and bon appétit!

FOR A SWEET TOUCH

Because Valentine’s Day without dessert is like an “I love you” without a kiss, Le Toledo has put in the extra effort with a special menu full of sweet treats to share… or not! On the menu: heart-shaped squirrel cookies, strawberry-hibiscus entremets as delicate as they are tasty. Enough to end the evening on a sweet note!

For a cozy, heart-warming date

With its hushed ambience and meaningful name, Café Noctis is one of the few cafés in the area to stay open until 9pm, perfect for prolonging the magic of the evening. Nestled in a warm, intimate atmosphere, it’s the ideal place for a tête-à-tête over tea or coffee, accompanied by a sweet specially prepared for the occasion. It’s the perfect place to melt your other half’s heart while discussing the finale of your favorite TV series. Romance and comfort: the perfect duo.

For those romantics

JEWELRY

Since 1965, Bijouterie Dubé has been making love stories shine on the Well with timeless jewels that stand the test of time, just like (we hope) your relationship. Whether you’re looking for a timeless classic or a unique piece that tells your story, you’ll find the perfect gem to make your significant other’s eyes sparkle. After all, jewelry is much more than a simple accessory: it’s a little piece of eternity to be worn every day.

At Jessi et cie, every piece of jewelry tells a story, and yours could very well start here. The passionate and meticulous owner creates one-of-a-kind pieces by hand, ready to be given away. But if you’d like to put your hand to the grindstone (or rather, the beads and metals), there’s a special area where you can design your own jewel on site. You don’t need to be a jewelry expert: someone is on hand to guide you every step of the way.

The result? A gift as personal as it is authentic, forged by you… and with a lot of love!

FLOWERS

A bouquet from Atelier Floral 4 Saisons, and the magic begins. Here, flowers aren’t just assembled, they’re carefully chosen to create compositions that speak of love better than a thousand words. Passionate roses, delicate tulips or more daring creations, each bouquet is a little floral declaration. Because sometimes, all it takes is a simple gesture – and a few well-chosen petals – to make hearts skip a beat.

For the cheeky and flirty

La Vie en Rose, a proud Quebec company, excels in the art of creating undergarments that are both pretty and ultra-comfortable, but also capable of raising the temperature. With their selection of lingerie, you’re sure to turn any evening into an even more unforgettable moment. Because Valentine’s Day can also be the occasion to add a little spice to your life!

At the end of the day, no matter how you celebrate, the most important thing is to have fun and let a little magic come into the evening. And why not add a touch of the Well to round things off? It’s an effective way of showing your love for both someone and your neighbourhood.

Happy Valentine's Day to all lovers!
