Planning a first dinner date without the stress
Pick the place, set the time and relax. A simple plan for an evening you both enjoy.
A relaxed dinner is one of the nicest ways to meet. A little planning keeps the evening easy.
Choose the right place
Pick a restaurant that is not too loud, so you can hear each other, and not too formal. Check the menu for anything either of you cannot eat.
Keep the timing flexible
Arrive a few minutes early. Two hours is a good length for a first dinner: long enough to talk, short enough to end on a high.
Prepare a few topics
Travel, food and favourite places always work. Ask questions, listen to the answers and let the conversation wander.
Agree on the bill early
Many people split or take turns. Say what feels right to you and keep it friendly.
Most of all, enjoy the evening. You are there to meet a person, not to pass a test.
