Meet people over dinner.
At home or at a restaurant.

Recently our friends ditched us last minute for a Michelin star restaurant that we booked 6 months in advance. We wish we had the option to post the dinner on Food Safari and take the chance to meet another couple.

I have some business ideas that I was thinking to pitch to strangers and tell me their honest feedback. It would be amazing to join dinners where everyone pitches a business idea or a challenge and receive feedback and different perspectives.

I love how Food Safari doesn’t allow to connect your socials and your last name doesn’t appear on your profile so people cannot search your “worth” as a human being. I’ve been missing having dinners with people who don’t have an agenda. The best conversations and connections come when there’s no transactional energy, but rather openness to the unknown and genuine curiosity.

I recently moved for work to a new city and I live in a community building that doesn’t really feel like a community. I was thinking to organize a BBQ on a Sunday and invite my neighbours but someone else tried to do that on our Whatsapp group and it was a mess of opinions and back and forth messages. I just want a simple way to create a BBQ with a date and time and what each needs to bring and whoever wants to join to just confirm in the app. No complications!

Besides my corporate job, I enjoy doing free walking tours and tell stories to tourists about my city and its history. During winter time or when the weather is bad, people don’t show up so it would be amazing to be able to create dinners on Food Safari instead for tourists or newcomers to the city. Instead of walking through the cold, we could combine stories about the city with traditional food.

I’m an international student and have friends from different countries. We love getting together at someone’s place and each brings a traditional dish. Food Safari would help us organize ourselves.

I’ve been wanting to change job and industry for 10 years and never felt like the right time. Would love to host a dinner on Food Safari in which I meet people with my dream role, hear their stories and day to day challenges. Change is not that scary when you meet people who already live the change you want.

I’m 60 years old and recently became a grandmother. I often imagine what world will my grandkids live in in the next decades and feel overwhelmed with all the technological changes. Would love to join dinners with different generations to talk about AI and the future of education. I really wish the next generations will be happier than us but phones and robots will never feel like real life human hugs.

I’m simply tired of my phone and would love to organize dinners where people are not allowed to have their phones on the table and everyone should share a story about a time they were anxious and what tools they used to dealt with it.

After our children moved away, Sunday dinners became very quiet. My husband and I were talking about inviting students over for dinner who are new to the city and who would maybe benefit from mentors to guide them through the transition and not feel alone. We had that when we were students and it was meaningful and helpful.

I’m selling hummus at different farmers markets in NYC and currently experimenting with new recipes that I don’t know how people will react to. Food Safari would help me invite people try my new recipes at home before I launch them to the public.

I was going through a separation and had stopped accepting invitations because I did not want to explain what was happening. It would have been amazing to join a “before the leap” dinner where everyone is facing some kind of change: a move, a breakup, a new job or a difficult decision. Just to share their situation and not feel alone.

Someone in our neighborhood wanted a safer pedestrian crossing near a school, but every online discussion turned into an argument. I feel it’s always easier to find solutions and common sense if you meet in person with people. Would love to use Food Safari to bring about change to the community, one dinner at a time.

I love that people can’t write about themselves on the app and that their friends are the ones describing them with recommendations. As a woman, I feel a lot safer going to dinners that require bringing a friend. This creates a sense of accountability of how people behave in front of strangers and their own friends.

As an entrepreneur, I attend many AI conferences, but meaningful networking can still be difficult. Food Safari would make it simple to bring people around the same table even when they attend the same event. Organizers are busy focusing on the official program. Food Safari could be used when people are free in the evening and still have energy to socialize but don’t know whom to reach out to.
