Valentine’s Day

Love Comes Through the Stomach

If love comes through the stomach, then where does it end? Joke:) Bring life to romance.

Today’s Valentine’s Day that we celebrate on 14th February, dates from the third century, the time of the Roman Empire. Emperor Claudius II forbade to soldiers to marry to prevent them to be tied to their family and, therefore, avoid going to war.

All priests except one – called Valentin compiled the emperor’s command. This priest resisted to the Emperor’s decision and keep on marrying young couples secretly. After they discover this disobedience Valentin has been imprisoned, and on 14th February executed. Soon, he has been declared as a saint and lovers around the globe still celebrate this day of love every February every year.

Come and celebrate that hero’s day and your love at Al Dente Restaurant & Bar.
