ENJOY LIVE MUSIC AND TOP-NOTCH EATS AT SUMMER EATS AND BEATS
What's more romantic than enjoying al fresco live music with your special someone? Not much, we'd argue. On Friday nights this month, Kinchin Lane's Summer Eats and Beats festival will host a lineup of exciting local acts, who'll be taking to the stage to add some live background music to date night.

And let's not forget — the key to anyone's heart is through their stomach. There's an exciting range of delicious eats at Kinchin Lane that you can check out right here.

LEARN A NEW SKILL AT THE SUMMER MOCKTAIL WORKSHOP
Relationships all about finding the right balance — just like a good mocktail or cocktail. Practice your mixing skills with your boo at the Summer Mocktail Workshop on Saturday, February 26. For $20 you will get the best tips from an expert mixologist as you learn the secrets behind what makes a great mixed drink. Appreciate the flavours in a Lemon Myrtle Spritzer and experiment with native ingredients in a Bush Tucker mocktail. Now you have a new skill that you can practise together.
HEAD TO TIMEZONE FOR SOME FRIENDLY COMPETITION
Live out your retro romantic fantasies with a trip to the arcade. Timezone is conveniently located in Wetherill Park and is home to all things fun. Whether you want to show off your bowling skills, play a little laser tag, or win your person a prize on an arcade game, TimeZone is filled with activities that will add a bit of spark to date night.

HAVE AN INTERACTIVE DINING EXPERIENCE AT SOJU
After you have worked up an appetite running around at laser tag, head to Kinchin Lane Korean fave Soju and enjoy a romantic dinner beneath the glowing lanterns. But the fun doesn't have to stop at the arcade — Soju serves up a great selection of Korean barbecue and hot pot that brings an interactive dining experience to your table. Don't feel like doing the cooking? Tuck into delicious Korean street food, fried chicken, bibimbap and more. Don't forget to wash it down with a pick from the soju menu, too, or a refreshing soju-based cocktail.

AND THEN, SATISFY YOUR SWEET TOOTH AT SAN CHURRO
Treat your sweet to a sweet treat — you know they deserve it. Head to San Churro for a shared plate of the namesake churro, crispy, cinnamon-coated deep-fried dough served with couverture chocolate, Spanish caramel and fruit. This will satisfy any sweet tooth and bring a bit of sugar and spice into your night.

Relax on the comfiest recliners and enjoy sleek in-cinema service where you can pair your movie with a selection of delicious eats and top-range drinks at just the press of a button.
