valentine’s day is fast approaching, and the pressure’s on. you want to do something romantic, but you’re also totally clueless as to how to make it special. here’s a novel idea: plan a gourmet picnic. with a little help from bfd, you can give your main squeeze a super special v-day in no time flat. our top-quality take-out makes for perfect picnic food.
as for setting the mood, we’ve got you covered, too. check out these super romantic ideas for valentine’s day picnics in and around san diego.

balboa park

this iconic urban park is the quintessential picnic setting. with over a thousand acres of scenic beauty, you can lay your blanket down on any number of grassy green areas. our favorite spot in the park for a picnic is zoro garden, a secluded little grotto that’s teeming with butterflies. fun fact: zoro garden was designed in 1935 as HQ for a local nudist colony. what better backdrop for a romantic picnic! to keep with the garden theme, pack a couple of grapevine salads from bfd in your picnic basket.

the beach

one of the best things about living in san diego is our bounty of beautiful beaches. a sunset picnic on the sand will amp up the romance factor of your v-day. pack a fuzzy blanket and cuddle up with your honey as you keep your eyes on the horizon, waiting for the green flash. some ideal waterfront picnic locations around town are sunset cliffs, la jolla cove, and mission bay park. and since you’ll be by the water, why not opt for a pescatarian meal? give our poached salmon salad a try.

your backyard

when picnicking in your own private outdoor space, the sky’s the limit for setting the mood. string up lights. scatter rose petals on the ground. serenade your loved one without subjecting strangers to your tone-deaf warble. then feed your sweetie our caprese sandwich while you scan the sky for shooting stars. 

the living room floor

who says picnics need to be outdoors? for an extra cozy and intimate setting, curl up on your rug in front of the fireplace. if you don’t have a fireplace, light some candles instead. pile up the pillows, put on your choice of mood music, and let the romance flow. but before you get too romantic, make sure you fill your bellies; our “loins of fire” sandwiches would complement this super spicy scene quite nicely.

don’t forget the drinks.

we’re talking about wine, of course. whether it’s red, white, or sparkling, we’ve got a curated selection of distinctive wines to pair with your special meal. buy a bottle or two to pack along with your sandwiches and salads. if your lover is more of a beer person, we’ve got a great selection of craft beers to choose from as well.

​when it comes to valentine’s day and romance, bfd’s got your back. give us a call at our university heights restaurant to preorder your picnic provisions, and we’ll have everything ready to go when you arrive.
