How Do I Find Events Happening Near Me?

Okay, so here I am. It’s Saturday evening. It’s been a rough week at work. I really want to go out and relax, have some fun, meet new people, and just enjoy myself. But here’s the thing: Because I simply don’t have the time to look into events happening near me at local restaurants or pubs, I always seem to end up back at the same old watering hole – with the same people, ordering the same food, and simply doing the same old thing. This, I can assure you, gets to be very boring. Especially, since it plays out week after week. I needed something to help me climb out of my rut. And guess what? I found it!

Hello Trist!

I’ll tell you about Trist in a moment, and how it helped me improve my social life by about 110%. No kidding. But first, let me tell you about my usual Saturday evenings. On a couple of occasions I actually tried to find a new place to go. I walked into one bar/restaurant that looked promising. When I got in, however, I found that I was probably the only person there under the age of 70. Not exactly what I was looking for. A few weeks later I boldly walked into another venue. It was nice. Only problem was, the ratio of males to females was about 9 to 1. Again, not exactly what I was looking for. Would I ever find a place with events happening near me that was fun, had a good mix of males and females, and was great for meeting new people? Yes! Enter Trist.

One great app.

Trist is simply the best app to find venues near you that have exactly what you’re looking for – and will tell you which ones don’t. The app is in real time. Let’s say you’re thinking about going to Charlie’s Bar & Grill. You click on the app and voila! up come the demographics. At a glance you can see how many females/males are there, but just as important, their age groupings. You can do this for just about every bar, restaurant, and even coffee shop in NYC. Do you think this might help you narrow down which venue will give you the best chance to meet new people, in your own age group? I’m here to tell you that it certainly has helped me. It takes the hit-or-miss out of deciding where to go. And I’ve found not one, but a number of great places to go and meet new people. And it works for every day of the week. Tired of sitting there Wednesday evening watching reruns of NCIS? Click on www.gotrist.com and find a great, happening place to go.

You have to try this yourself.
Life is far too short to do the same-old thing. You owe it to yourself to meet new, stimulating people. The kind of people you’ll enjoy being around, and who will enjoy being around you. A couple of clicks on Trist, and you’ll be there!

It’s Friday Night. You Want To Go Out, Meet New People, And Have Fun. You Need A Restaurant Locator

Seriously? A restaurant locator? This is New York City. The Big Apple.Everyone knows where the best restaurants are, right? The fun hot spots? Where the in crowd goes? Wrong! There are close to 17,000 full service restaurants and another 2,700 bars and pubs in NYC. And here you thought you knew all of them. Well, sorry about that. But what’s all this restaurant locator stuff about? Glad you asked.

First, don’t confuse a restaurant locator with an ordinary restaurant-rating app.

They don’t have much in common. A rating app will tell you if the ratatouille is up to par, if the bar serves skimpy drinks, or if the wait-staff is pleasant and accommodating. Now, these are very important things, but you’ll get the same information from a restaurant locator app. So what makes a restaurant locator better, and why should you get one? Because you get a whole lot more.

Let’s set the scene for Friday evening.

You’ve been waiting all week to go out, maybe have a great steak, a few drinks, and chat it up, while making some new friends. Someone told you a hot spot was Fred Flinstone’s Bar & Grill. OK, it’s worth a try. You go there, it looks good from the outside, but when you get in you find you’re the only person under the age of 75. And they’re arguing about a play in a Red Sox-Yankee game that took place before you were born. Another thing, it’s also 95% men and you were hoping maybe you could strike up a conversation with some attractive females around your own age. Well, looks like this Friday night is pretty much shot up. But, there’s always Saturday night!

Let’s reset the scene to Saturday evening.

Discouraged, but not defeated by Friday’s adventure, you log on to a restaurant app called Trist. You look for restaurants and bars in the area. And there you are…a bunch of them come up. You find an Italian restaurant that looks good. The lounge is comfortable, and then comes the surprise: the app will tell you how many females (or males as the case might be) are there, and how many are in your age range. We absolutely, positively, would not kid you about this. And get this … it does it in real time! In other words it tells you what the playing field looks like, before you even leave the locker room. Is this not some kind of miracle app, or what?

You really need to get this app – like today!

Trist is really a great tool to use anytime to help you get more fun out of your free time. It helps you find great food and drinks in great places, meet new people, and simply kick back and enjoy. Isn’t that sort of what weekends (and some week nights!) are all about? You bet! Bon appétit!

How I Chose Eating Places Near Me That Have The Right Atmosphere

Everyone who goes for a night out is looking for something different. Maybe you want a quiet spot for a good conversation with your friends, or maybe you’re hoping to party all night. Here are some tips and tricks for finding the local eating places or bars that offer the atmosphere you want for your night out. This is how I found eating places near me.

Read Reviews

Reviews are the best options to turn to for on honest assessment of bars and restaurants. Even if a restaurant’s website says it attracts crowds of twenty-somethings, this may not be true. Reviews by the restaurant's and bar’s patrons will give you real insight into what the atmosphere is like there. Whether you want a night on the dance floor or an evening sitting in a booth with friends, these reviews will help you find the right place for you.

Use an App
A restaurant finding app is a good choice for anyone looking for eating places. Some apps, like Trist, give you real-time information about who is at a restaurant. That way, you’ll know if the place you’re going to is crowded or completely dead, and you’ll also know the age demographics of who’s there. Apps also compile patrons’ reviews, so you’ll be able to see people’s thoughts about the place in one easy-to-reach place. These types of apps make it easy for you to quickly find the perfect eating place that has the crowd that you’re looking for.

Nobody wants to waste a night out with a dud of a bar. To prevent that from happening, read reviews and use Trist to find a bar or eating place that has the atmosphere you’re looking for. Doing this will help you have a great night out on the town.
