Date Night Idea: The Progressive Dinner

Progressive Dinner \prə-ˈgre-siv ˈdi-nər\ (n):
a meal where each course is served at a different location.

This is definitely one of my favorite dates.  Probably cus after being couped up in suburbia with the kids all week, I want to feel like I really got out and had a night on the town.

Wanna try it on your next date?  Here's How:
Pick three places.  Consider the parking factor - it might be a good idea to choose locations you can walk to from one another.  Now delegate a course to each location.

For Example:
Location 1: Appetizers & Cocktails
Location 2: Main Course
Location 3: Dessert & Espresso

What's your favorite progressive dinner date?

  1. LOVE this idea, Tiffany. :)
    And, recently, my husband and I had a sort of progressive dinner-shopping trip, where we headed to publix to buy our dinner supplies. The rule? I pick the first dinner item/ingredient, he picked the next, then me, then him... We started with a couple of potatoes, and I think ended up having some fabulous steak dinner or something! It was fun to keep each other guessing when one would lead us down a random aisle as a head fake. SO much fun!

  5. For our anniversary one year we strolled through Whole Foods downtown : ) It was fun figuring out what we wanted for an appetizer, main course and dessert. Lots of choices all under one roof!
