One of the nice things about Teaneck is that on Valentine’s Day you can find a fun, affordable, and loving time without the travel hassle. Check our list of local places offering something special for Valentine’s Day.

Get romantic at these warm spots:

∙ The Classic Quiche

The logic is simple. Mondays can be busy, a tough night to dine out.

So, celebrate Valentine’s Day a day early.

The Classic Quiche, owned by Joseph and Charlene Sciarrone, is hosting a “Valentines Dance” on Sunday evening, Feb. 13 in the small, personal party room. Held from 6:00pm – 9:00 pm, the event includes a dance lesson, great live music, appetizers, refreshments, a cash bar, and more. Tickets are $20.00 with your RSVP. For info, email giftofdance@gmail.com or visit www.giftofdancestudios.com.

Call ahead and reserve your table at Nobo Wine & Grill, but remember to do this: mention Teaneck Patch.
