When was the last time you did something completely spontaneous? Our series groups together complete strangers for a fun night out. That's right, you sign up, and we book the restaurant. We know life can get busy. Don't do city life alone and build your community with us. This project is to host dinners in 100 cities to combat loneliness while supporting locally owned businesses.
These gatherings are based on table reservations via Opentable, Resy, or other platforms, and are not directly associated with the restaurant of choice. The listed restaurant is the location we are eyeing, granted we hit our minimum for the night.
This micro-event is intended to be for 4-6 people maximum. Check out our feature in 
Eventbrite's 2025 TRNDS report
 about embracing the micro-event trend.
Please see here for our coverage in Nashville Fox 17's Growing Nashville segment.
How does it work?
After you register, you'll be emailed an introduction message including a quick questionnaire regarding 
age, dietary restrictions, hobbies, and interests
.
*Your registration does not include your individual food and drink purchases. A paid ticket simply makes you more committed to actually showing up.
*These outings are intended to help people make 
friends
. These are 
not singles gatherings
.
*If we don't meet our minimum number of registrants for the evening you sign up, please be open to joining us on another evening! We will complete table reservations after we hit our minimum signups, so you may reach out to us before signing up for or after you sign up to see our progress with registrations for the evening.
*If you sign up the day of the gathering and do not get a message from us in time, simply email ermantourageimpact@gmail.com, request a refund, or please be open to joining us on another evening.
Our vision is simple: we take the no gimmicks approach to networking. No need for yet another app to take up space on your phone - just four walls and a roof and good food for people to connect :) We coordinate with you directly, 
human-to-human.
If you have any more questions, please contact

The tour guide was very good. He not only talked about Edinburgh Castle, but also focused on the Royal Mile. The guide was knowledgeable, explained clearly, and started on time.

苏河家园

Edinburgh Old City, England, is surrounded by medieval stone buildings and beautiful scenery. Edinburgh is not only a financial town, but also a palace of art. Walking on the street, you can see entertainers&#39; happy performances everywhere. This is the origin of traditional Scottish dress skirts, the blend of art and life makes people linger, it is worth a visit.

Calton Hill

Mountain climbing

Night view

Carlton Hill is an iconic Edinburgh attraction known for its neoclassical complex, 360-degree city views and rich cultural activities. The design inspiration is based on the Parthenon in Athens. The Greek-style columns on the top of the mountain are magnificent, like the skeleton of a temple solidified by time, and they quietly guard Edinburgh. &zwnj;
