Ladies longing for romance this Valentine’s Day should look no further than the kitchen table – then put their feet up. New research from Morrisons reveals that this Sunday two-thirds (62%) of British couples will cook up passion at home with one in three (35%) men slaving over the stove compared to just one in four (26%) women.
When it comes to the nation’s favourite food for love, it’s out with fancy fodder and in with heart-warming classics, with over half (58%) choosing a classic soup over saucier scallops and two thirds (65%) opting for a homely lasagne over a fussy salmon en croute.
Scottish men are the most doting with nearly half (49%) planning to create a culinary Valentine’s delight for their partner and 45% will wash up afterwards. However, married couples are the real romantic gurus since 93% put the same or more effort into impressing their loved one on Valentine’s Day as at the start of the relationship.
Top five most romantic regions that keep the early days of romance burning on Valentine’s Day:
-1-) Wales - 90%
-1-) North East – 90%
3) West Midlands – 86%
4) Greater London – 84%
5) South East – 83%
Proving it’s the thought that counts, 43% say that they’re dining in because it’s more special to do so, compared to just a fifth (21%) of couples eating at home to save money. And it’s the little touches that make it more special - over half (52%) pull out the romantic stops with candlelit dinners, 40% dress the dining table with flowers or petals, and a quarter (24%) ensure the kids are absent for the evening.
However as well as the little Valentine’s Day ‘dos’ there are plenty of ‘don’ts’ with more than half (55%) citing bad table manners as a no go.
Top five Valentine’s meal turn-offs:
1. Bad table manners
2. Mother cooking the meal
3. Being cooked unhealthy food
4. An ‘everyday’ meal such as a stir-fry
5. A takeaway meal
Morrisons Group Marketing Director, Angus Maciver said: “This year we’re helping Valentine’s Day cooks to minimise the hassle and maximise the romance by offering an easy to prepare, fantastic quality, three course Valentine’s banquet for two that includes some of the nation’s heart-warming favourites.
“And as a doting Scotsman myself, I understand that a little help in making the meal preparation run smoothly is very much appreciated!”
