Food and Community

At MeStro, our slogan is "Food is Community". Obviously, eating in itself is a very social experience, but what about a MeStro goes deeper than a normal dining experience?

Let's think a bit about how becoming friends with somebody often goes. Quite a lot of the time, there's a three-step process going something like this:


1) You meet somebody(sometimes awkwardly!) at a networking event or randomly, exchange contact info, and go your merry way. Obviously, networking events provide food to try to make the environment more friendly, but we always feel that these events lack a LOT of depth.


2) You meet up for lunch or a drink. Things are a little bit more friendly, but it's still hard to say that you're actually friends. Again, we think it's noteworthy that these meetings are almost always over food of some sort, but seemingly never in a very close environment.


3) You meet at their home, for dinner. All of a sudden, the game has changed a lot. By the end of the evening, it's pretty clear as to what sort of friends you'll be. The connection is far more close and personal, which is why the most intimate dates are always the ones where you have dinner at your partner's house, not at a restaurant. This is where truly deep friendships are forged.

Now imagine that you skip (1) and (2) and go straight to the deeper connection, the more intimate experience. Think about the time you'll save, the experiences you'll have, and the friends you'll make. That's MeStro. That's food helping to build community. We're 100% dedicated to providing that deeper dining experience, and we can't wait to see everybody at the dining table!
