While many of us aren’t thinking about Delta or Omicron and are venturing out into big crowds, some of us are choosing to find alternative methods of celebrating Valentine’s Day. I discovered one of the best spots in my city for a recent birthday celebration. I took the family to Folk’s Folly here in Memphis and we booked a private room. We all played dress up a bit, because the walk from valet to the restaurant is a fashion show, got our KN95 masks coordinated with our apparel, and we did the ‘Ernie Johnson beating Kenny the Jet to the big board’ strut to our private room. After not really going out to eat so much in the last two years, it was a comfortable experience.
As Valentine’s Day approaches, I thought it would be fitting to list some pop of cherry sneakers you might want to rent a private room, and casually flex while walking to your dining reservation, in. Then again, if you’re just as nervous as we were, I’m throwing a few running shoes on the list because you might want to have a jogging date. Check it out.
