This self-funded project stemmed out of years of eating dinner out, all the life-changing conversations that have occurred and passed, and celebrates our wonderful and vast system of countless restaurants.
For the project, I will travel to four locations and take people, mostly strangers, out to dinner at a restaurant of their choice and pick up the tab. I will meet these people either in public, through Craigslist, or via friends. Below are the dates and places that I will visit on my tour.
dates and places:
Chicago :: Monday, April 12 – Friday, April 23
Los Angeles :: Thursday, April 29 – Friday, May 7
New York, New York :: May 13,14,15,16
Saint Simons Island, Georgia :: May 17,18,19,20
