The benefit of proposing at Victoria & Albert's is that the restaurant is set up for special occasions. When a couple walks in, strangly enough, the host already knows you by name, you are seated at a table that has personalized menus. Your names are on them etched in gold,which you keep, and at the end of the very extravagant meal, the lady is handed a rose. Now imagine being proposed to over the dessert course, right before the rose comes! That would be special:animwink:
Some other suggestions are romantic but are flawed for
this occasion. For instance, San Angel is a beautiful atmosphere but...you're looking at the water with volcanos, and a boat ride full of people..a constant reminder that you're in a theme park. Plus if you're going to propose over dinner, would you really want tacos to be on your plate?
Bistro De Paris is also a very nice restaurant, if you like French food. That menu is "adventuresome". I eat anything and I found some things there that were good and others that were:hurl: . But that wasn't my concern with this place...Here the waitstaff is always sort of aloof to the customers and that can make some people uncomfortable. This is the only restaurant that, IMO, is between casual and fancy although they treat it like a very upper end type of place. So here the comfort level and the menu could be a problem for a "perfect" proposal. Some of the hotel restaurants are nice but tend to get crowded and noisy. Yahctsmon is a great restaurant but there is alot of distraction there and I would imagine that this particular meal should really be a special moment with the central focus as the couple instead of everything else.
With all of this taken into consideration, at V&A's the staff will pamper the couple and make them feel very comfortable, the atmosphere has dim lighting, a harp plays in the background, the noise is kept to a minimum, the food is perfect! The only problem there is if she says no:lookaroun , but in this place, no one can resist
