Brunch With Bae: St. Valentine’s Day Recommendations
February is known as Black History month and the shortest month of the year, but it is also known for Saint Valentine’s Day.
St. Valentine’s Day has become a Hallmark-holiday dedicated to love and friendship. However, many people will plan a perfect night for their sweeties but will fall short of their expectations.
While Pace students may not have a hard time getting physical with their significant others, college loans make it hard to get fiscal. So if you and your bae, or your group of anti-Valentine singles, want to celebrate on a budget then consider some of these local brunch spots. After all, St. Valentine’s Day is next Sunday, and what better way to celebrate your relationship status or lack thereof than with a few mimosas and breakfast foods at 1 p.m.?
