It’s not just your girlfriend who’ll cave to roses.

Are you at a loss about where to take your sweetie for Valentine’s Day this weekend? Are all the tables at your favorite romantic spot taken up by stupid jerks who had their shit together enough to actually make reservations weeks ahead of time? Apparently Hot Chocolate is willing to consider bribery: The Trib’s Christopher Borrelli was at the restaurant recently and saw a guy swing by with red roses and chocolates for the hostess. No, she didn’t take the gifts, but apparently just being in their presence was enough — she managed to squeeze the lovelorn dude in for a prime Saturday night table. It’s not exactly a reservations black market, but it is a nice object lesson in greasing the wheels. [The Stew]
