RESTAURANT ROUNDUP:

Zov’s Cafe Bakery and Bar plans to dedicate February as the “Month of Love,” with a special all-dessert menu offered every Sunday during the month.

The menu, also available Sundays at Zov’s Irvine location and Mondays at its Tustin location, comprises three courses: “Be Mine,” featuring mini-homemade cookies and warm vanilla cream sauce; “True Love,” chocolate ganache heart-shaped cake with raspberry drizzle; and “Forever Yours,” pomegranate-tangerine sorbet with citrus almond poundcake.

The trio of items costs $14.95.

“The ‘Month of Love’ at Zov’s is an opportunity to share our love for good food with our guests, who we consider a part of our family,” Zov Karamardian, the restaurant’s founder and executive chef, said in a release. “Valentine’s Day is known as a day of romance, and we have something special for those seeking a memorable, romantic evening on Feb. 14.

But we have extended the holiday into a monthlong celebration to include not only couples, but also families, friends and kids of all ages. There is something for everyone.”
