Our September is filling up with so many dining ideas that we know you will want to attend more than one, if not two a week! The more the merrier...We all have at least one single friend we know, so be sure to tell or even treat a friend to an event as a guest for $20! Just let us know you plan to do so by phone call or email!

This is our first official Single Gourmet Hawaii Newsletter. We plan to bring you news, interviews and info on restaurants, news about our events, food and entertainment, as well as, our experiences with Single Gourmet Hawaii. . Email us with your thoughts and ideas if you like. Our membership is everything, so you have a voice. Let us know what you like, and give us ideas on how to improve our dining club. It's your club!

Who Are Our Members?
So far, our average member is female and about 40. But wait, we have members as old as 65 (so far) and as young as 23! This will change constantly we are sure. Most, well 90%, are professional working folks. Some are new to Hawaii, but many are local kine too. They live all over the place, Wahiawa, Waianae, Kaneohe. But, everyone of them have one thing in common...they love to go out to dinner! Remember our motto is "why dine alone...when you could be dining with us! Those days are over now thanks to Single Gourmet Hawaii!

Would you like to be highlighted in our newsletter? Tell us about yourself, your business, and how it's going as a member! Even include a picture if you like. If it's of interest we can put it here!

Contact us and tell us about yourself! Please though, don't just say visit my blog, or myspace! We want to hear directly from you.

Who are the Single Gourmet Hawaii Hosts?

In this spot, we thought it would be fun to tell you about some of our hosts. As you may know, we have a Single Gourmet Hawaii Host attend each event we have. They are there to help you feel more comfortable and to introduce you to other event goers and to help you feel at ease with your dining experience with us. They are hand chosen. Each has special interests that may be of interest to our members. They all must love people, know how to make an event fun, andHost - Alitoya  want to be at the location (they choose the events they want to host).

Meet Alitoya!

Ali is a professional teacher and helps us in her 'not so spare' time. She teaches computer, modeling, and substitute teaches at Kaimuki High School, has a B.A. from UH Manoa in Fashion and Merchandising and she also tutors! Ali grew up right here in Hawaii, lives near Diamond Head, and enjoys people, animals and loves to laugh!
.
We are so glad to have you Ali, you are a great addition to SGHI!
