My Best Romantic Dinner Recipe

| Rose Petals Fetuccine |
This is one of my best romantic dinner recipe that I ever made and you don't have to wait Saint Valentine's day or any otherspecial occasion to make it.
A romantic dinner is always special, it's when you are seated relaxing and enjoying an evening meal at home or in a local restaurant.
It's when a look pass between you and the eyes of your beloved, through the weak candlelight. Those whispered words makes you feel excited, and after all it's when that romantic atmosphere makes it all happen.
Not long ago, I went with my beloved for a candlelight dining in a pretty Italian restaurant in Venice.We ate a pasta dish called rose petals fettuccine, and we were so delighted to make me ask for the ingredients.
I thought for an instant that it could be easily made either at home, so I brought this magic recipe with me and once back home I made it...
