French isn't called a Romance language for nothing. Technically speaking, of course, the designation has less to do with the sexy syllables than it does with origins in the Roman Empire, but that's just splitting etymological hairs. Get some help conjugating those verbs -- wink, nudge -- during the Valentine's Day-themed festivities this Thursday at Pistache French Bistro. The restaurant is offering a French Kiss Party with music by DJ German Garcia, aphrodisiac cocktails, and a kissing booth (ooh la la).
