The great thing about residing in Atlanta while dating is that there’s a load of ridiculously nice restaurants. With Atlanta being such an eventful dating scene, people are always looking for a nice “first time date” dinner place. Living in such a busy dating setting i.e. Atlanta dates start to add up, and mostly on the men end. Well I found the perfect way to date on a budget. There’s a great company called ScoutMob based here in Atlanta that’s managed to create exclusive deals around town for their subscribers. I’ve seen discounts up to 50% off on very well known NICE restaurants. They’re concept is fun and mobile. They send you the hot deal that’s going on now and if you like it, you simply get it. Remind you this is all FREE! So the next time you have a date scheduled check out ScoutMob, see what deal they have going on and save yourself some money.

Played Bunco with the ladies last night. Never played before, but it’s definitely something I would love to implement into my night life. I loved the camaraderie of women gathering together once a month having girl talk in the mist of a dice game. We all brought $5 to contribute to the pot of gold for the winner and snacks/drinks.  I enjoyed listening to their stories of their dating life which made it a relief to know that I’m not alone. We talked about everything from the problems of having a guy best friend to what our ideal mate is. I think I finally understand what the whole “Girls Night” is. I love it. =)

Summary

• There are six rounds in each set of Bunco. The bell signals the beginning and the end of each round.
• Players earn points by rolling three dice. In each round, players are trying to roll the same number as the number of the round (for example, rolling
  in Round 3). One point is awarded for each number rolled that matches the round number. A player continues rolling until no points are scored. The scorekeeper records this score on the table tally as the temporary team score. The dice then pass to the player on the left. The round is over when the Head Table reaches 21 points.
• Players change partners at the end of each round.  The player with the most BUNCOs, wins, losses, etc, at the end wins. Normally, two to four sets are played at a time.

Don’t we love the male friends in our lives that wine and dine us for nothing in return? Honestly, I’m pretty simple. Give me some good food and some drinks, and I’m good. After work, I met up with a long time friend of mine at Apres Diem which is an international style coffee house with a bar. I was glad he called because my day was not going good and a drink is what I needed in addition to some genuine good company.

So $150 tab later, it was time to close out the night. I began to think to myself on the way home. When I do find someone that I consistently date, do I have to give up my male friends that do lovely things for me? That’s going to suck, because I don’t think I would want to?…lol. Who knows, until then…I’m going to keep having a good time! CHEERS!

Aja Restaurant and Bar

3500 Lenox Rd NE

Atlanta, GA 30326

Aja is part of the Here to Serve Restuarant Group that consists of Strip, Noche, Twist, Shout, Prime, Goldfish, Home, and LOLA. Like the rest of the restaurants in this family, Aja definitely lives up to its trendy atmosphere. With its 10ft brass Budha that arrived straight from Thailand, private seating areas, and delicious food, you and your party are sure to have a great time.

And of course, at night Aja turns into a place where you can let your hair down, do some dancing, and be amongst a good looking crowd. This Saturday, I’m assuming it was Salsa night because the gist of the music was just that…lol. I still had a great time feeling like I was in Miami and everyone was auditioning for “Dancing with the Stars.” I haven’t a clue how to dance Salsa, so I spent my time at the bar with my new Afghanistan friend.

So if you love Salsa and dancing it, I would recommend having dinner at Aja and then Salsa dancing after. Be careful hitting the dance floor because they sure know what they are doing. CHEERS!  

Enjoyed hanging out with my friend Larmarrous this weekend. Check him out: And stay tuned for Slo Mo Multi-Media Designs.
