If you're looking to do something special for your significant other on Valentine's Day, I suggest avoiding going to this holiday dinner because you could end up in the dog house.

Not A Great Valentine's Day Dinner Idea In Illinois

First of all, I would like to say that I'm not trying to be negative about this restaurant itself. I've been there many times in my life, especially for some late-night grub. But, if you're trying to do something nice for your special something this might not be the best idea. For some couples, this is actually their ideal evening out.

Everyone has their own way of celebrating Valentine's Day. Some people go all in and spend tons of money. Others just do something small. There's no right or wrong answer. Whatever works best for your relationship. My wife and I just do something small but if I tried taking her to this event, she wouldn't be happy.

What I'm talking about is the annual St. Valentine's Day dinner at White Castle. It's where the restaurant has a full sit-down meal. Even though we don't have one in Rockford there are plenty of locations throughout Illinois even and some not far from us.

Once again, it's nothing against White Castle but not everyone is into their food. What would your significant other say if you said, "Hey honey, we're going to White Castle for Valentine's Day?" Or even worse, make it a total surprise and just go there without their knowledge. Oh, that would be quite a surprise.

Of course, there are plenty of couples that love the idea. For some, that's what they do every year for Valentine's Day. Maybe, they had a special moment there like a first date at White Castle. I think that's really cool for them but not everyone has that kind of relationship. I just want to make sure you have a great holiday.
