Lapdance Classes: Or, How to Spice Up Feb 14
A few simple rules for Valentine's Day—no generic dinners. No rose petals. No champagne. Well, maybe champagne. Generally, though, you prefer a bit more creativity (and so does she). Read on.
She Wants: Something Relaxing
She Gets: A session for
you both at the two-level, 20,000-square-foot spa deep inside the new Montage Beverly Hills—complete
with a pretty striking coed
mineral pool. Because gifts for you both are the best kind of gifts.

- Spa Montage, 225 N. Canon Dr (N. of Wilshire), Beverly Hills, 310-860-7800
She Wants: Something Frisky
She Gets: Lapdance
classes—one noble West Hollywood fitness studio has bested yesterday's pole-dancing craze with this
couples-friendly endeavor. They say it'll strengthen her legs, and you're in no position to argue.

- Harmony Studios, 8440 Santa Monica Blvd (E. of La Cienega), West Hollywood, 323-822-9584
She Wants: Jewelry
She Gets: A rare find at
a new shop owned by a man behind Bar Lubitsch and El Carmen—and a woman with a knack for finding
unique estate-sale pieces under $300, like a necklace packing a giant battleship. Aw, you shouldn't have.

- House of Love and Luck, 370 1/2 N. La Cienega Blvd (N. of Beverly), West Hollywood, 310-657-9911
She Wants: Chocolate

all-chocolate tasting "dinner" on a Brentwood chocolatier's intimate patio. Bring a bottle of red to go with
your Kaffir Lime Chocolate Panna
Cotta with Thai Chili Sauce.

She Wants: A Ring
She Gets: The remaining
balance of your savings account. If this year's the one, economy be damned, the Resort at Pelican Hill will
send a Dom-stocked Bentley to take you to your two-bedroom villa with round-the-clock butler, and you'll
have a private, musician-backed dinner...here. Don't forget the ring.
