To sweeten the deal for your sophisticated better half, bring your girlfriend to Giovanni—a local favorite for fine Italian cuisine. Although the ambience isn’t exactly Tuscan romance, you and the SO can dine on $19 shrimp parmigiana or veal Giovanni—or, if you’re really cheap, $2.50 slices of pizza. The restaurant is a ten-minute hike from anywhere you’d catch a fly ball, but manager Chris Deseanu says they get “a lot of spillover from Yankee stadium.”
