Quick not-your-average picks for Valentine's Day

POSTED: Friday, February 10, 2012, 4:00 PM

Fancy dinners on Valentine's Day are cool and all, but why not do something a little different this year? We've compiled a quick list of unique things to do on/around Feb. 14, with ya boo or even stag.

- Golosa (806 S. Sixth St., 215-925-1003) is having a prix-fixe three-course ALL-DESSERT meal from 6 to 11 p.m. Bring a date and a toothbrush. Reservations are required, FYI!

- Whipped Bakeshop (636 Belgrade St., 215-598-5449) is holding a couples' cake-decorating class on Feb. 11 and 14. Don't worry, you don't have to eat the whole cake there. They'll let you take it home. It's also BYO and also requires a res.

- The Cherry Bomb Bus girls are throwing a "misery dinner," called Eat Your Broken Heart Out, at Teri's (1126 S. Ninth St.). Make sure to buy tickets in advance for the four-course dinner, with seatings at 6:30 and 8:30 p.m.

- Give some love where it's needed on Feb. 11 at Marc Vetri's TweetHeart Social, a children's event benefiting CHOP. It takes place at Nest (1301 Locust St., 215-545-6378).

- On V-Day proper, Frankford Hall (1210 Frankford Ave.) will be showing Natural Born Killers, one of several inspired choices in their Valentine's Day movie series.

- Visit Philly has compiled a whole list of date ideas for you to make your own. They're also holding a contest to win a bunch of cool and expensive stuff.
