If you screw Valentine’s Day and are only waiting for the discounted chocolate on February 15th, or if your Valentine runs on batteries and you are usually having a threesome for Valentine’s Day: you, Ben & Jerry…then we have the right party for you! Take the pressure off of Valentine’s Day and swing by Zarah on Tuesday, February 14th because we are BOYCOTTING the way Valentine’s Day represents fairytale romance and its celebration as a couples’ parade to exchange mass-produced feelings. Therefore, instead of a mushy-gushy Valentine’s Dinner, we are throwing a “Saint Valentine Remembrance Party” in order to cheers to the martyr of the 3rd century. Unfortunately, not many people know that Valentine’s Day traces its origin to Saint Valentine who was a priest during the Roman Empire who secretly performed weddings for soldiers & Christians who were forbidden to marry under the Roman Empire. Upon being caught, he was imprisoned, tortured, and martyred in Rome on February 14th, 269. In honor of Saint Valentine, we will put on a whole night Happy Hour offering all open wines and sparkling wine at RMB 45 per glass. Moreover, from 7pm – 10pm the following delicious 3-course-set dinner menu will be available with an interesting local twist at RMB 288 for singles and RMB 576 for couples, including a glass of sparkling wine per person. Instead of listening to seemingly endless playlists of love ballads, dance your cares away at Zarah with live DJs until late hours. Whether you are single, a couple or a “Love-Stinks-Let’s-Drink”-person, let’s get all together on February 14th at Zarah to raise our glasses in a toast to the martyr Saint Valentine.
