Staying in for Valentine's Day?
Try Cook! SF's do-it-yourself meal kit
By Susan Dyer Reynolds

Some of my best Valentine’s Days have been at home. I eat out for a living, so going to a crowded restaurant and paying jacked-up prices is not my idea of a good time, and because I cook a lot, that’s not always ideal either (nor is a sink full of dishes). I have a self-imposed conflict-of-interest rule not to date chefs, and leaving the cooking up to “him” has proven a bad idea in the past. But I recently tried the do-it-yourself meal kits from Cook! SF and I felt like Goldilocks – it was just right. The fully prepped meal takes only 30 minutes to prepare and then you have a gourmet meal. This sensual do-it-yourself dinner is laced with aphrodisiac foods and affordable at $95 for two people.

Order by noon on February 10, and Cook! SF will deliver the kit with simple instructions by 6 p.m. on February 13. Call 415-513-5328 or visit www.cook-sf.com for more information and to see the menu.
