Piada Bringing Together Couples for Valentine's Day Again

Piada Italian Street Food has some matchmaking success and is bringing three blind dates together this February 14.

Submissions and voting through Piada’s Instagram Stories kicks off this week. And if you’d rather plan your own V-Day date with your S.O., family, friends or self, Piada is offering buy one, get one free on all entrees nationwide from 5-10pm on Valentine’s Day.
