Picnic on the Lake

Head to the Loeb Boathouse in Central Park to rent a rowboat! Take a scenic boat ride around the lake for an intimate date. Pack a picnic to take it up another notch! This is a good date to get some alone time in the big city!

Relationship Reconnection: Talk about your memories from your early dating days. Talk about how you felt when you first met each other and when you knew you loved each other! Taking a boat ride is already a romantic date, but conversations like these can really pump up the romance.

SriPraPhai

Head into Queens to get a taste of some authentic Thai food. SriPraPhai was started in 2000 by Sripraphai Tipmanee, who came to New York from Thailand 33 years ago. There is a very large menu to choose from and affordable prices, making this a perfect dinner date. You can choose to sit outside by the beautiful garden and water feature, or in the cozy indoors.

Relationship Reconnection: Talk about the restaurants you've been to in the past and make some plans to try some new food. There are restaurants from almost every country in the world here in New York City. Make a plan to try foods from 5 different countries within the next month. Be more adventurous as a couple and try things that you may not normally try. You'll form closer bonds as you find new things that you both like!
