Clearly some cities are better at providing great places than others. For example when I lived in Paris there were a million cafes to date in, but when in Singapore I usually had to date in food halls which lacked the same ambiance. I would always recommend dating at lunchtime if possible for a first date as there is a fixed time limit and an escape route implied. You can grab a coffee for dating web sites and you don’t need to worry about looking smart as much as you may be in work wear. If this makes sense then spend a few lunchtimes going to a few places with friends to date which would suit you best as a work venue. Remember never to let on where you work in the early stages of dating. Keep safe. Try out a few small restaurants, tapas bars, coffee shops, diners and sandwich bars and date which you think would make a great place to check your new date out. If you are dating after work then maybe it will be a bar downtown or an early evening restaurant etc. I would always advise somewhere informal to begin with so that you can both relax over a drink. A formal evening dinner for a first date is a recipe for letdowns in my opinion. There is a great build up dating web sites, a lot of effort, expense only to find the date lasts dating web sites. So don’t bother initially, get into the groove of short snappy dates that are relaxed and a lot of fun. This will demonstrate your creative part. Almost every major city has some kind of cool art gallery. In my opinion these are tailor made for dating and great places to date. You can appreciate the finer things in life, or look like you appreciate them, whilst at the same time spend time in the presence of your date whilst at the same time have a distraction in the art itself. Popping to the toilet also acts as the perfect escape route if you have made a grave mistake! Comedy clubs are a great place to date. You can date for a drink beforehand and relax and have a chat. You then have the marvelous facility of built-in comedic entertainment that rubs off as showing you as being funny too because the whole atmosphere lends itself to humor. Although you can’t chat as much throughout the show it will quickly demonstrate sense of humor levels and you will be able to sense if you are on the same wave length. If you can laugh together you may be on to a winner. I love going on dates to Zoos, particularly out of season. I don’t necessarily agree with keeping wild animals in cages but as they are there and zoos are trying to keep species from extinction that it is the least we can do to try and help. But as animals show our softer side and are interesting to go date then they are the perfect backdrop for a date.
