Today is Valentine’s Day and what better way to say “I Love You” to your boo than with a romantic meal. So when I had the chance to chat with Celebrity Chef G. Garvin recently at the Macy’s Black History Month Celebration, I couldn’t help but ask what the perfect menu would be for two. Here’s what he told me…

The perfect menu begins with you understanding your partner and what they want…
Next, I would start off with a nice bottle of red wine
Then a safe salad with kale & caramelized walnuts, golden raisins, sliced almonds, and a white balsamic vinaigrette
After the salad would be a sautéed big eye salmon
Light creamed corn
Arugula shaved fennel and razor clams

Close out the night with a Lightly-Buttered Pound Cake feat. Honey Jack Daniels and vanilla cream sauce

Garvin on The Food Network’s “Guys Grocery Games.” He’s also releasing a new book, “The Taste of the South,” which marries his southern roots with everything he’s seen from around the world. He’s also working with newly married actress Keshia Knight-Pulliam (Hartwell) on her upcoming show,”Cooking with Keshia.”
