The Ivy Launches Valentine’s Day Set Menu With Cupid’s Love Heart Dessert And Complimentary Forever Rose

For just £65pp guests can enjoy a beautifully curated menu, complete with a Forever Rose to take home. 

This Valentine’s Day, The Ivy Collection is inviting guests through its doors to celebrate their love stories and enjoy its carefully crafted, three-course Valentine’s Day set menu.  Available at restaurants around the UK* from 12^th to 16^th February, the menu includes a starter, main, sides to share and a dessert per person and provides the perfect array of dishes for celebrating the day with a loved one. What’s more, guests who enjoy the Valentine’s Day set menu will also receive a Forever Rose to take home; a beautifully preserved real red rose, presented in an elegant gift box.

To create the Valentine’s Day set menu, The Ivy’s executive chefs have carefully crafted a tempting selection of dishes for guests to enjoy while creating and celebrating their love stories with their significant other. The menu which pulls on decadent flavours and seasonal ingredients, pairs beautifully with the lush and lively palette of Perrier-Jouët Blason Rosé, which will also be available for guests to enjoy.

To start, guests can choose from a creamy and indulgent Stilton and Walnut Cheese Soufflé, twice baked in a cream sauce, and The Ivy’s Classic Crispy Duck Salad, with roasted cashew nuts, sesame, watermelon, ginger and hoisin sauce. The Classic Prawn Cocktail with marinated avocado and a tangy Marie Rose sauce is also a on the menu and is a perfect celebratory starter for an evening of romance.

When it comes to mains, the menu includes a velvety Foraged Wild Mushroom and Truffle Linguine; Wild mushrooms sautéed to create a sauce with plant-based cream cheese, tossed with linguine and topped with pine nuts, handpicked rocket and shaved truffle. A decadent Chicken Supreme Milanese with Truffle Sauce, consisting of a succulent, crumbed chicken breast topped with a fried hen’s egg and served with parmesan and lamb’s lettuce salad, is also joined by Blackened Cod Fillet and a classic Fillet of Beef (7oz/198g, £4.00 supplement) as a choice of main.

To finish, the star of the sweets is the delectable Cupid’s Love Heart; a rich and silky white chocolate and vanilla parfait adorned with rose petals, created exclusively for Valentine’s Day by The Ivy’s executive chefs. Guests can also select the iconic Ivy Chocolate Bombe or for something equally tempting, the Crème Brûlée is also part of the selection; Classic set vanilla custard is topped with a caramelised sugar crust, waiting to be cracked with the side of a spoon.

Following an evening of fabulous food and perfect company, guests will not leave empty handed. Each pair who selects the Valentine’s Day set menu will receive a Forever Rose, allowing them to take a piece of their romantic evening at The Ivy home with them.**

Presented in a beautiful Ivy gift box, the Forever Rose, a real, preserved rose, will last up to three years when cared for, and serves as a symbol of all the enduring love stories that have sparked at The Ivy since its debut in London’s West End over 100 years ago.

Selected restaurants will also be adorned with a stunning rose ceiling installation, providing the most romantic scenery for guests.***

Laura Mills at The Ivy Collection said: “At The Ivy, we’re fortunate to have been part of many of our guests’ love stories, from first dates and anniversaries to wedding breakfasts and other celebrations. This Valentine’s Day, we wanted to thank our guests for including us in their special moments by including a Forever Rose as a part of their dining experience. With a perfectly romantic setting, delicious food, and exceptional drinks, we look forward to being part of even more love stories this Valentine’s Day.”

The Valentine’s Day set menu will be available at The Ivy Collection restaurants around the UK* between 12^th and 16^th February and will be a bookable experience on Open Table.
