New York City romances are made of cobble stone streets, classic jazz music, indulgent chocolates and endless pours of wine. At Ayza Wine and Chocolate Bar, pairings set to the tunes of live music are a perfect match for a West Village date night. Savory dishes are creatively touched with chocolate – from Steak Tartare (with bitter chocolate, jalapeño) to Braised Beef Short Rib (with dark chocolate, truffle cauliflower mash, hen-of-the-woods mushroom). End your night with the Dark Chocolate Fondue, with fruits, marshmallows and more for dipping. Does it get any more date-night-perfect than sharing melted chocolate with the one you love?
