Indulge your senses at “Greenville’s largest and oldest winery and vineyard” this Valentine’s Day weekend. For only $29.95 per person, enjoy a guided wine and chocolate tasting, a one hour experience that will feature 7 specialty wines and chocolates. Learning how to create complementary wine pairings can make a romantic date or rocking girls night. After the tour, enjoy live music and flexible seating in the barrel cellar and cottage. Escape the routine at City Scape Winery.
Nestled into the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Restaurant 17 is a romantic, upscale restaurant that feels a world away from Upstate SC. Enjoy European style dishes, made fresh with ingredients by local farms and prepared by chef Haydyn Shaak. This weekend, for $85 per person, individuals can enjoy a 3 course meal prepared by the chef, with appetizers like Wild Mushrooms + Risotto, and main courses like lamb chops or Organic Tempeh “Steak.” Impress your guests or treat yourself during this relaxing food experience this Valentine’s Day weekend.
Learn a new skill this Valentine’s Day weekend: rolling your own sushi! Whether you are a newbie or an aficionado, this class is for everyone. The $85 dollar tickets at Chef 21 Sushi Burger and Korean BBQ include the class, a welcome drink, and a delicious selection of sushi: Salmon Nigiri, Shrimp Tempura Roll, Tuna Avocado Roll, and Spicy Crab Meat Roll. Looking to make the experience even more lavish? Opt for the VIP package or special add ons! Or make it a girls night out during their Galentines Sushi rolling class on February 15th. It’s the gift that keeps on giving.
Be blown away by Ben’s Crawford’s astounding vocals at the Greenville Theater, Valentine’s Day only. He is most known for his role in Phantom of the Opera, which ran for five straight years. He is also known for his roles in Shrek the Musical, Les Mis, and Beauty and the Beast. This intimate concert will feature Broadway hits, such as “The Music of the Night.” Tickets are $49.50, and seats are selling out quickly, so be sure to reserve your spot today.
Check out the Upstate’s largest children’s consignment sale this weekend for unbelievable deals. Shop from over 200,000 new and gently used children’s items, including clothing, shoes, accessories, toys, books, furniture, and more. The Greenville Convention Center is hosting this free event from Friday to Sunday, although new moms/dads/grandparents/foster parents are invited Thursday for a presale celebration. Sunday often has ½ off marked prices, too. Don’t miss out on this unique experience; you never know what you can find just around the corner at Switch-A-Roo. Happy hunting!
