Join me at the next Seattle Mystery Meet!
As a bit of a foodie, I’ve recently become familiar with an event called Mystery Meet. The casual culinary enthusiast is given the opportunity to explore fantastic new restaurants and connect with other like-minded individuals. There’s a set ticket price which includes a multi-course meal and dessert, and everything is taken care of ahead of time so there’s no messing with cash and splitting credit cards 18 different ways. Mystery Meet, as the play on words cleverly suggests, comes with a bit of a twist. Diners do not know where they’re heading or what they’ll be eating until the day before. This adds a level of excitement, and encourages only the more adventurous to blindly purchase tickets.
Before each event, a series of clues are leaked through the website or social media which, with any luck, will shed some light on where the event will take place. Each event also has a host, local to that area, usually another food blogger or – perhaps – an entrepreneur who runs a food related website.
That’s right – the next Mystery Meet event, held on Tuesday, June 18th at 7:30pm, will be hosted by yours truly. Tickets are now on sale for $50 bucks, and will sell out quickly. Sound like fun? Like food? Like entrepreneur things involving food? Bored on a Tuesday night and all caught up on Game of Thrones? If you answered Yes to one or more of these questions, I’d love to see you there! It’s also the kind of event where it’s perfectly okay to show up by yourself. I’ll make sure everyone gets a chance to meet everyone else, and maybe even ask people to change seats halfway through the meal.
In the mean time, a bit more on Mystery Meet can be seen here in this lovely video. Hope to see some of my readers there!
