Is "Social Dining" the cure for the remote work loneliness epidemic?

Since remote work took over, we've gained freedom but lost connection. Dating apps are too high-pressure, and meetups can feel transactional.

We built Mesapra2 based on a simple premise: Everyone has to eat. Why eat alone?

We're trying to reclaim the "Third Place" (not home, not work) by connecting people strictly through gastronomy—no dating pressure, just good food and networking.

Question for the community: When you travel or work remotely, what’s your biggest barrier to meeting new people offline? Is it safety, awkwardness, or just not knowing where to go?

We're trying to solve the "awkwardness" part with a double-validation check-in system. Curious to hear how you handle offline connections!
