Romancing in the ‘Boat

When Cupid fired his bow this month, it sent the romantic vibes ricocheting across the valley. We asked a handful of locals to share their favorite places for a romantic dinner in Steamboat Springs, in spirit of celebrating Valentine’s Day all month long:

Dinner at Café Diva. This local staple has been serving off-the-charts fine dining to the community for almost a quarter of a century. This year’s four-course offering included coffee and onion braised pork ribs and a strawberry cheesecake mousse.

Chef Jake Burman’s sage-brined pork chop with au gratin potatoes and spiced agave veggies, washed down with a glass of Salomon Riesling, served in one of Aurum’s intimate yurts.

A window seat table at E3 Chophouse, savory bacon-wrapped dates, filet steak and a warm baked cookie to share. No room for being dainty here.

The Laundry for General Manager JJ’s current favorite beets dish with blue cheese fondue, pumpernickel croutons, candied pecans and clementine, paired with Domaine Andre Vatan ‘Les Charmes’ Sancerre.

Sauvage for the six-course tasting menu, where dinner is served over a luxuriously long time. How can you not feel romantic when served with chocolate of all shades for dessert?
