Ok … on to the list …

‍

1. Name A Roach At The Bronx Zoo

The Bronx Zoo is celebrating Valentine’s Day with a quirky tradition: naming a Madagascar hissing cockroach after a significant other. Accessorize the momentous occasion with a tote or tumbler from the event’s merch collection before capping the affair with Roach Romance, a special after-hours stroll while sampling sustainably grown chocolate and wine.

‍

2. Museum Of Sex

Let your artsy side shine at the Museum of Sex, where Love High packages include essential tools like aphrodisiac cocktails, lubrication, and THC or CBD gummies. The four-floor erotic carnival is dressed in red velvet and adorned with a RuPaul fortune teller, erogenous kaleidoscope, mechanical bull and more. Bundled in is admission to their titillating galleries as well as access to Super Funland: an exhibit that’s sure to get you in the mood.

3. Eat A Heart Shaped Pizza

If you’re looking for the perfect V-Day dinner that's casual but effortlessly romantic, look no further than a heart-shaped pizza! To experience this time-honored NYC tradition, head over to the family-owned and operated Ivana’s Pizzeria in Bronx Little Italy (they've been around since 1979) or Eataly in FiDi.

4. Get A Couples Massage

Ditch the roses and chocolates, and spend the evening of Feb. 14 at a spa with your loved one. World Spa in Brooklyn offers couples a range of treatments (like massages, foot rubs, and facials) designed to soothe sore muscles and release tension. After your time in the treatment room, head to Ren, the spa's full service restaurant for their organic, seasonally-driven menu.

‍

5. Take A Mixology Class

Head to Apotheke, Chinatown a New York City speakeasy-style bar for a libidinous mixology class that will last an hour and culminate in four cocktails (made with champagne, strawberries and rosé) that are sure to get you in the mood for more. After such a romantic experience, it may be difficult not to close out the evening with a few vodka sodas.

‍

6. Share Erotic Desserts

Kinky’s Dessert Bar delivers the full pleasure of fine desserts in the most playful way. Share provocative desserts like the Turn Me On tongue cupcake and Va-JayJay waffles. Then head to Soho and visit Sugar Wood cookies. For the month of February, they added a special WAP-themed cookie set.
