Hana Zen’s Top Tips for a Romantic Date

 
Are you still wondering how to stage a successful romantic date? Stop fretting and read on.

·                     You have to know what makes your partner tick (or not).

There is no really cookie cutter mold for what all couples the world over consider as romantic. The ideal scenario for one couple may be different from the ideal setup for another couple. A lot of this is riding from the fact that the individuals in a couple would be different; thus the individual's needs have to be considered first. If a partner has achluophobia, or fear of darkness, it wouldn't really be advisable to have a scary movie date. While that could give you lots of chances to get closer and cuddle, don't be surprised if your partner ends up with a look of shock once you get out of the theater.
That is not to say that you cannot employ any proven and tested method for a romantic date. There are always safe choices that have worked for years, like a romantic dinner or a picnic under the stars. But as mentioned earlier, you need to make sure that you've ironed out some details of the date, or you're bound for a disaster! A lot of times, it's all in the small stuff!

·                     Take time to smell the roses.

In most circumstances, there's nothing that could make a romantic date go south than something that destroys the mood. We have to admit, romance is 90% mood, so a mood spoiler can definitely turn a romantic date to an unforgettably regrettable one. Aside from knowing allergies and individual quirks as suggested earlier, you also have to make sure you have details that you have control with are indeed under control.

Just imagine, having an intimate dinner at the water front with the two of you really in a romantic mood when suddenly, the loud ringing of your phone pierced through the evening air. Turn that phone off! Spend time with your date and give undivided attention. Not only will this contribute to a romantic moment, this will also allow you to truly enjoy your evening.

Another guaranteed romantic mood killer is haste. Who, after all would feel romantic when you're still catching your breath and trying to forget your sweaty armpits from having to rush to the location because you were running late? Take the time to get ready and be on the site on time, whether you’ve staged a casual dining experience in a quiet diner to reminisce your high school days or a candlelight affair in a Michelin star restaurant. This way, you will feel comfortable, ready for a romantic mood, and actually be in the moment to feel romance.

·                     Conversation is romantic.

Two people on a date talking is certainly a romantic thing; two people on a date without talking is a sure sign of trouble. There is just too much silence a date can handle, and a date, no matter how romantic is it, can definitely benefit from two people actually conversing. There’s nothing romantic about long, awkward silences, nor is there room for romance is a bar with loud music playing that you’d need to shout at each other just to be heard. Stage your date somewhere you can hear each other and offers wonderful sights. Dinner by the bay at Hana Zen Restaurant in Pier 39 or people watching at Hana Zen in Union Square gives you the avenue to converse comfortably, without the noise and only the beautiful views and good food and drinks.
