| - While I was looking forward to a new dining experience, I hadn't anticipated this one being quite as unique and enjoyable as it was. I'd read a couple of reviews about it after my girlfriend suggest it for my birthday and understood that because you are truly dining in complete darkness, a lot of thought had been put into the menu and the ingredients that make up the 6 courses you'll be served by your night vision goggle clad server. Your 6 courses and their ingredients are purposefully made up of a variety of foods of different textures, flavors, density's and sizes. Before being escorted Conga Line style into the dining room, you'll get to choose one of the 3 flavor genre's that will make up 2 of your 6 courses; savory, spicy or sweet. The other 4 courses are the same for everybody. Your server will then carefully escort your party into the blackness of the dining room and seat you individually., explaining the layout of the table for you because you literally can't see anything. They'll take drink orders (be aware, these are pricey) and bring out your first course. What I found fun about the experience was that I enjoyed every course, and that most of them were relatively complex recipes (no burger or sandwiches) that we'd try to decipher and identify their different ingredients by taste and texture alone. We'd take a bite or two and then discuss what we thought we were eating. For a picky eater or the less adventurous diner, this might not be as fun as it was for us. I enjoyed all of the courses, especially the dessert. Even our conversation felt different because as we talked, all non-verbal cues and feedback were eliminated and you really have to focus on the other persons words. And you may say things you might not otherwise say, if you'd been influenced by those non-verbal cues, such as their facial expressions, while you spoke. Your server continually reminds you, out of courtesy, that they can see everything , while you cannot. They do this because diners often forget that because they've been blind for 60-90 minutes. So don't pick your nose or your butt crack, or do anything else you wouldn't do in the normal light. They'll also tell you which tool to eat with for each course. Such as, "You'll want to use your fork for this course". And they'll tell you where that utensil is with a clock face reference; ie. "At one o'clock is your glass" or "Your fork is at your three o'clock". Overall, it was a great experience and I'd recommend it to any adventurous person who enjoys a new experience.
