Valentine’s Day, the day intended for those in love which is officially celebrated around the world.

Love and love alone would be the word to beat. Its also the time of the year aside from Christmas, New year, and Birthday when people – lovers – exchange gifts.

It will be another first for me.. first time to celebrate V-day here in Davao City and away from my fiancee.

How does Dabawenyos and Dabawenyas celebrate the day of the hearts? Is it like the Manila celebration?

I sure there’s no big difference. But maybe there is… maybe Dabawenyos are more passionate.. Hmmmm…

For those who will be celebrating V-day… here are some events/promos you can consider:

• Valentine’s Day at Picobello. Meal for less than P700.00 per person.

Picobello is an italian resto. I’ve heard lots of good comments about this resto.

• Caffe Vivere’s Valentine’s Treat. Two menus to choose from for only P950.00 – already good for two persons.
• A Whole Latte Love on Valentine’s Day. 3 Meals sets to choose from. Each for just P175.00.

They also have a promo for the whole month of February.

Update 2/12/08:

•  Valentine Mood at the Atrium of Gaisano Mall. From February 9 to 17, feel the valentine mood at theAtrium of Gaisano Mall as yo listen to musical pieces played on the piano.. live.
• Space Burger’s Valentine Promo. Space Burger has the best grilled burgers in town. Try it!

• Feel the Love at Taj Minar.

But for those whose still looking for the right partner… maybe the Singles Night is the event for you. Caffe Vivere has one. On February 15, a speed dating event will take place. Click here for more info.
