A Guide to Planning the Perfect Romantic Breakfast Date
August 22 - Written by Crystal Andino
Planning a breakfast date is the perfect way to show your date that you're eager to see them. Anyone can show up for dinner, but getting up early just to spend the day's first few hours with someone is a pro move when it comes to romance.
Check out this blog post by Pangaea Grill to see why you should be going on breakfast dates if you haven't already. So how do you make it special? The answer is planning. Don't go halfway if your goal is to show someone you care enough to make an effort. Here's how to do full justice to the most important meal of the day.
BE PUNCTUAL
When you meet someone at breakfast spots, they've had to wake up early, especially to see you. So be sure not to oversleep and run late. If you're trying to show someone in your life that you value them, do it with your actions. If necessary, down an espresso, so you don't look too dazed when you show up.
BOOZY BREAKFAST IS BETTER
Coffee might be great for waking you, but morning cocktails go a long way when connecting with someone. Breakfast in Carmel with a couple of drinks is the perfect start to a great day—hopefully with your partner.
DON'T RUSH OFF
The major driving factor of a breakfast date is that it leaves open the option for one of you to ask to spend the day together. Or at least a few more hours. So don't make plans right after your breakfast date. Regardless of the time of day, you never want to give a date the impression that there's someone else you'd rather be.
So relax and enjoy the ambiance at your breakfast restaurants of choice.
AVOCADO TOAST IS GREAT, BUT YOU CAN DO BETTER
Speaking of breakfast restaurants, for this occasion, less is not more. Choose breakfast places with a wide range of unique options. Just because breakfast menus tend to be limited doesn't mean you can't be adventurous, even if it is quite early in the morning. Why not try something like a Carmel grill house restaurant and a place that serves Korean cuisine?
Fortunately, for foodie couples, Pangaea Grill makes a great morning venue, but their customer base also loves it as a lunch restaurant and a dinner place.
Situated moments away from the seaside, you and your "person of interest" can stroll down to the beach and relax by the sea until you're sober enough to get behind the wheel. And voila, you've got the perfect breakfast date.
If you're interested in cocktails like no other, then book a table at this Asian food restaurant.
