All About Love: An Elevated Dinner Experience

This Valentine’s Day, step into a space of warmth, depth, and connection as we gather for a candlelit four-course dining experience inspired by Bell Hooks’ transformative book, All About Love.

Whether you’re celebrating with a partner, friends, or embracing love in all its forms—including self-love—this evening is crafted to nourish both body and soul. Enjoy a thoughtfully prepared meal infused with intention and elevated with care, designed to bring a sense of ease, presence, and deep conversation.

Set within the lush greenery of Emerald City Plant Shop, guests will be guided through a journey of flavors and reflection. Each course will be paired with a quote or conversation topic from All About Love, offering space for dialogue on the many dimensions of love—romantic, platonic, communal, and self-love.

Copies of All About Love will be available for purchase, encouraging guests to continue their journey into Hooks’ vision of love as an action, a practice, and a radical force for change.

As we move into 2025, love—how we give it, receive it, and cultivate it—feels more important than ever. Bell Hooks reminds us that love is more than romance; it is care, respect, trust, and accountability. Love is a foundation for healing, connection, and transformation—within ourselves, in our relationships, and in our communities.

This dinner is not just a meal; it is an experience—an invitation to slow down, savor, and engage with the radical act of loving.
