Episode 9: Bougie or Cheap? A single rejection of the Cheesecake Factory for a first date becomes a nationwide talking point.
Hello, lovely listeners! You've probably come across the viral list circulating on social media, featuring places women suggest men should avoid for a first date. But let's dive deeper—were these recommendations justified, or is our protagonist simply leaning towards the bougie side? Is there really a problem with opting for a restaurant chain?
In this episode, we explore acceptable first date venues and dissect the criticisms aimed at the spots mentioned in the infamous list.
- Pre-Date Discussions and Planning: The importance of discussing and planning the date beforehand cannot be overstated. It ensures both parties are comfortable with the chosen venue and sets the tone for a pleasant experience.
- Honesty about Preferences: If the proposed locations don't align with your preferences, honesty is key. Open communication about your expectations helps avoid potential discomfort & disaster during the date.
- Phone Etiquette: Putting your phone away is a simple but crucial aspect of a successful date. Be present and intentional, unless you are texting a friend for "an emergency exit call".
- Respectful Behavior: Regardless of the chosen venue, treating your date with respect is paramount. Appreciate the effort put into planning and enjoy the company, irrespective of the restaurant's status.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
