If You Don’t Need to See Your Date, Try Dining In The Dark on Valentine’s

|

This weekend a dining concept that has launched in other cities throughout the country comes to Dallas.  For 4 days only, starting Friday night, guests will have an opportunity to really experience a meal, and their date, without the use of one of our key senses, vision.  Smell, sound, touch and taste will be at the forefront of the four course meal designed to ignite romance without the use of sight.  The experience will occur at The aloft Hotel downtown, more information available here, and below.

Upon arriving at the Dining in the Dark venue, guests are welcomed in a lighted lounge area where they can order their drinks and preview the menu.  Once they have ordered, guests are guided into the darkened dining room for an experience of taste, smell, touch and sound they will never forget.

Diners will enjoy a meal in a literally pitch-black dining room where they are guided and served by blind or visually impaired individuals that have been specially trained to serve meals in the dark, casually and comfortably offering guidance and reassurance for sighted guests.
