Stressing over the perfect Valentines Day plan Try this fun online quiz
Stressing over the perfect Valentine's Day plan Try this fun online quiz Stressing over the perfect Valentine's Day plan Try this fun online quiz Valentineâs Day is supposed to be one of the most romantic holidays of the year. But oftentimes, it can get bogged down by those pesky details - where are you going, and what are you doing? The pressure is on to come up with that ideal Valentineâs Day date, and all the stress can put a real damper on whatâs supposed to be a perfect, romantic evening.That tension becomes even more stifling in a city with so many options. Do you want to see a movie, or go to a play? Is a museum visit the right mood, or a carriage ride? And most importantly, out of the bajillions of restaurants in your area, which one sets the ideal tone for your special someone?But never fear - the Internet is here to save the day! OpenTable has launched a new online tool called Matchmaker that helps you find a restaurant for your big night out, so you can focus on flowers and chocolates. Just answer a few questions, and your Valentineâs Day is basically planned for you.How it worksWhen you launch OpenTableâ s Matchmaker, the first screen includes a cuddly couple with a heart dangling above. But donât be fooled - the tool isnât just for lovebirds. Press âget startedâ and choose from three totally different options: âItâs a date,â âIâm bringing the familyâ and âcelebrating with friends.âNext, Matchmaker gets into the practicalities. Are you looking for a cheaper option, or âgoing all out?â Do you want Italian, American, Japanese, French, vegetarian, seafood, Mexican or a steakhouse? Whatâs your vibe - quiet and cozy, formal and fancy, casual and low key or something else? For each category with a myriad of options, you can choose more than one and see what the matchmaker picks for you.Then, itâs time to schedule a date. Are you celebrating on Valentineâs Day proper? Or that weekend? It is a long weekend, after all, which means more time off to be romantic. Maybe you even want to make two reservations!Either way, once youâve decided on all your param eters, itâs time to meet your match. Say hello to the restaurant of your Valentineâs Day dreams â¦â¦ Or not. When I first tried the tool, I happened to get a restaurant Iâve been to several times, thatâs not among my favorites. Upon other tries, I was assigned to places that were far from my apartment, that seemed like a hassle to get to on such a busy evening.But hey! At least the choice is no longer in your hands. If you have the best dinner of your life and get lucky after, thank Mr. Matchmaker. And if the dinnerâs a disaster, you can blame the robot - it wonât mind.Plus, at the end of the day, what really matters is the company you keep. So even if the meal isnât right up your alley, hopefully, the person you share it with will be. And thatâs definitely something worth celebrating.
