It's a great idea - I've been cooking for my wife on anniversaries, birthdays, and Valentine's Day for about 20 years now. She's already put in her request for this year's meal.
Just make sure that your friend knows how to cook whatever he's planning on cooking. I have some friends who don't regularly cook and have tried really ambitious meals for special events. It invariable ends up being a stressful nightmare for them. Your friend should have cooked whatever he's planning on cooking once or twice before doing it for Valentine's Day. He should also get some flowers, nice wine, and a good dessert.
Additionally, if you talk to anyone who works in a restaurant they'll tell you not to go out on Valentine's Day. Restaurants are packed and frequently aren't serving their best food. As a general rule you should never go out for brunch on Mother's Day, go to a bar on New Year's Eve, or go to dinner on Valentine's Day.
Wow, thank you very much! Your suggestion are very good. And wish you have a wonderful Valentines day with your wife.
Valentine's day is around the corner. One of my friend said that he want to cook for his girlfriend on Valentine's day. I guess that is very cool, it is better a candlelight dinner. So, i am wondering how many guys would love to cook for their girlfriend on that special day? Or would you take your girlfriend out and enjoy a wonderful dinner? Which do you think better? And why?
I would cook. It would be enjoyable for both of us. Women seem to appreciate the effort more, too.
I certainly wouldn't. First of all, I suck at it. And second, cooking is a woman's job. Yes, I said it. Unless you're a professional chef but that's a whole 'nother ballgame.

I cook for my wife and kids four or five times a week. On special days, we're going out somewhere.

Ladies and gentleman, someone on the internet said it, so it must be true!

This may be the case in big cities or large metro areas but not necessarily the case everywhere. The most complaint I heard around here in my city of about 40,000 is the wait time. I have family, friends, and coworkers who always go out on special occasions and over the years I cant remember anyone saying anything bad about the service or food. my own personal experience is pretty much the same, the places that are known for good food still serve good food on these busy occasions, you just have to wait longer for it. the places that are subpar or borderline tend to be even worst on these busy days of the year and most people around here already know about their reputation before hand. I'm just saying depends on where you live I guess and I'm sure some big city places have a good track records for knowing how to handle large occasions.

Well, since I actually like to cook, I'd prefer to cook for her on Valentine's Day -- unless there's a real good basketball game on TV.
I'd like my guy to cook for me rather than take me out on valentines day as it's more personal and intimate.
Allright, E, you don't have to beg. I'll cook for you.
