Why not both? See what others around you want to eat, swipe together, meet up with a stranger in a restaurant and eat together. Maybe get to know them, maybe not.
Did that last week after a friend told me about it and I like these kind of random things
I’m new in town and was hoping to meet some fun people
Turns it there is an underlying intention of meeting potential dating material, as I matched up with 3 single women.
Being a married man I had an amazing evening and lots of fun discussing dating apps and dating life, though I’m not sure if the ladies would rate the evening equally successful given the absence of potential dating material …
Do they? How much? I filled the quiz, then I got requested to create an account. I guess they show the price after they have the users fully signed up.
I see how that isn't a pocket money amount of cash. However, that's still a price I would be willing to pay to have a single shot try at the event. I might actually try it this month.
Maybe it's different on other cities. On mine each seat was $50 (plus tax and stuff). And then you also have to pay for your food, obv. And you don't even get to pick the place.
I would definitely pay that (and much more) if I knew I was going to get an honest lifelong friend out of it. But it's a very shallow experience, you come in as strangers and you leave as such, not really worth spending any money.
What I wish would become widespread is this concept of a "shared table" at restaurants where people are expected to sit down to dine together and talk to each other.
