A sweet stroll.
Unorthodox first dates can be a gamble. Rock-climbing with an acrophobe = big mistake. But who can know a person’s likes and dislikes this early in the game? With stops for cupcakes, cookies, and gelato, this dessert walking tour has enough options to satisfy anyone. You’ll get to know Greenwich Village and visit some of the best bakeries in Lower Manhattan along the way. Plus, if there’s an awkward lull in the conversation, you can shove that cupcake in your mouth until you think of something witty to say.

Scoop, there it is!
Gelato is the most toothsome food around -- it’s dessert AND Italian food! This creative date idea will have you and your date learning how to make gelato side-by-side. When you’re done, you can take your work (and, if all goes well, perhaps your date) home with you. Try this one on for size come date night: “Hai dato un senso alla mia vita.†Who CARES what it means ... Italian sounds romantic even if you don’t understand it.

Your tour guide will also provide background on the rise of Hell’s Kitchen, in case you’ve got a sweet tooth for history too. From handcrafted chocolates to traditional American pies, there’s sure to be enough to please the both of you. And if it doesn’t end up being happily ever after for you and your date, at least you’ll be burning some of those calories off as you walk.

Color me cupcake.
Out of all these luscious activities, this one might take the (cup)cake. You’ll learn both classic and inventive cupcake recipes in this class that you can also recreate at home. It’s a great idea for date night -- but, no matter how much you like the class, we advise you not to start using the pet name “cupcake.†Maybe you swore you were never going back to school, but we can assure you that the Institute of Culinary Education isn’t anything like your high school home-ec class. Well, except that we hope that you have same the butterflies for your date that you had for that girl who sat next to you back in the day.
