Where To Go For Your Valentines Day Date

It's almost Valentines Day, and, well, Pullman is not exactly known for its romantic date locations.  So, what's a savvy couple of lovebirds supposed to do?  Surprisingly enough, Pullman does have a few nice restaurants for that night out on the town.

Tokyo Seoul is a new restaurant in town and is located in the parking lot of Nendel's Inn.  Sounds classy, huh?  But not to worry.  This traditional style sushi restaurant serves up great food and all for an affordable price.

The sushi is presented on a box-like platform with finfer and wasabi.  Their wide range of options should suit anyone's sensative taste buds.  Maybe you aren't the sushi loving type, but you want to give it one last shot.  I recommend The Ichiro: a deep-fried California roll, this one has the crunch but still holds in all the flavor.

Still not a fan of the uncooked fish and odd textures of sushi?  The Korean barbeque portion of the menu should give you a good fix.  The meat dishes are mouth-watering.

While the food is delicious and worth the cost, the service is slow.  The restaurant is currently short staffed, so be patient and understanding to your flustered waiter.

The Red Door is located in Moscow, Idaho and is hands-down the nicest restaurant in the area.  The restaurant is small and intimate and if you want to get in, I would make reservations now.  Seriously, pick up the phone and call now.

The wait staff is attentive and helpful in assisting you with your dinner choice.  They are knowledgeable and can even recommend a good wine choice for those of you over the legal drinking age.

Not a dish is poorly made.  Each one bursts with flavor and is paired with complimentary side dishes.  I recommend the elk.  It has a berry sauce over it adding the sweet to the smoky.

Be warned that the prices are a bit more expensive (slightly more than Swilly's), but there is also only one Valentines Day a year.  You might as well make it count.



All in all, if you have a car that will drive, take your sweetheart to the Red Door.  If not, go for something exotic and off the cusp with Tokyo Seoul.  Either way, it will be a memorable night.
