Hi, it would be romantic to prepare something on my own, but who has the time to cook nowadays? Perhaps a restaurant is a good idea..when I think of that I always imagine that scene from Lady and the Tramp, when the dogs dine at the Italian restaurant and the dog passes a meatball chuck to the "lady" sooo cute! Anyway, if you plan to spend a romantic evening with the Italian food, u can check the restaurants here, under Italian Restaurants in USA
