Nobody should
eat alone.

You know that meal. Sitting alone at a restaurant table on a business trip, phone propped against the water glass, watching everyone else at their own tables mid-conversation. If you've traveled for work, you've probably had that exact meal, and somehow it always feels shorter than it should and lonelier than it needs to be.

I've had that meal more times than I can count, and it got me thinking. Why do we accept eating alone as normal, when a simple conversation could make the whole experience so much better?

Around the same time, I'd also been planning to rebuild something I'd neglected for years: my own health. Long working hours, irregular meals and constant stress had slowly caught up with me. So instead of quietly starting another generic fitness plan on my own, I decided to build accountability into it by joining people for a meal who, like I once did, don't want to eat alone either.

I'm calling it Diet Date, because nobody should eat alone. Not you, and honestly, not me either.

If you're an entrepreneur, founder, freelancer, business owner, or just visiting Chennai for work and would rather not eat another meal alone, I'd be happy to join you. Not for networking, not for pitching, not as a date. Just two people at a table, exchanging ideas and stories we'd probably never get to over a Zoom call.
