Reciprocal Dining Platforms

VoulezVousDiner Connects Travelers With Local Foodies Around the Globe

— February 25, 2016 — Lifestyle
VoulezVousDiner is a unique platform that connects traveling foodies with like-minded individuals across the globe. Rather than sampling meals at random locations while traveling, foodies can connect with VoulezVousDiner members who will welcome them into their home once they reach their destination.

This social app helps users foster friendships while abroad while letting them experience authentic global cuisine. Essentially, the platform connects hosts with dinner guests and prices meals at a set rate that is affordable for traveling foodies.

While food fans will get an authentic cuisine experience that can't be found inside a traditional restaurant, hosts are able to profit from the food they create for their visitors. This unique peer-to-peer business model will appeal to curious Millennials and travelers who seek authenticity while exploring the world.
