The heart-shaped pizza alternative for Rochester families

I heard that nearly 70% of couples plan to eat out on Valentine's Day. With the average bill expected to hit just over $100 before tip, choosing the right spot is key. If you're looking to splurge, check out Yelp's Top 10 most romantic restaurants in Rochester at the bottom of this story.

Many people have already begun making their Valentine’s Day plans, usually involving the standard lineup of dinner reservations, flowers, and chocolates. Since having kids, we’ve typically celebrated with heart-shaped pizzas, but this year, we might head to Chick-fil-A instead.

If you’re skipping the crowds to celebrate Valentine's Day at home with your kids, Chick-fil-A has something pretty special (and heart-shaped) waiting for you.

Trailing only McDonald’s and Starbucks in U.S. sales, Chick-fil-A is bringing back a fan-favorite promotion across its 3,000 locations, including the two here in Rochester, just in time for Valentine’s Day.

HEART-SHAPED TRAYS BACK AT CHICK-FIL-A

Chick-fil-A’s heart-shaped trays are back again this year, but they're only around until Valentine's Day, so move fast if you want to snag one. You can fill them with all the classics:

• 30 Chick-fil-A Nuggets
• 10 Chick-n-Minis (available during breakfast hours)
• 10 Chick-n-Strips
• 6 Chocolate Chunk Cookies
• 12 Chocolate Fudge Brownie halves

This is a fun way to celebrate, especially if your date night includes kids.

If you're lining up a babysitter and heading out, book your reservations ASAP!  Check out this Top 10 list from Yelp to find the perfect spot for your Valentine's date.
