Come join me Thursday’s for Lunch, Fellowship, and Prayer. I wish I had a group of Christian friends that I can pray with during lunch or after work.  Someone once told me being a Christian is the hardest journey I will undertake.  I am happy and blessed to be a Christian because God sent His only Son to purchase me from hell. (John 3:16) Sometimes a simple prayer with others, during the day will strengthen us to continue this race. We all need it at times. God's plan for your growth and freedo …

In Nov 2012, Hao Chen stepped up to keep this meetup alive. The following description is from the ex-organizer: History/why I want to do this: As a young engineer in the late 90s/early 2000s I went to some loosely organized lunches with various industry pros, all architect/senior level working for many big names back then. Amazing things were discussed. It totally pierced my mind. Now, fast forward to 2012,  I want to get everyone together to discuss tech, over some good food :) I want to keepin …

Scary fact: 60% of people get away from their desks for lunch just twice per week-- or less. Studies show that working continuously makes us less focused, less creative, and less productive. Come join a growing movement of workers from around the country who are taking back a crucial part of their day—lunch. Every Wednesday this summer between 12 and 2, in participating cities around the country, we'll be urging people to get up from their computers, leave their offices, head outside and take …

Hello, anyone interested in sharing conversation over lunch in Chinatown, NYC? I like the cheap, quiet eateries. Note that this isn't a group for free lunch.

Are you the only vegetarian or vegan in your Midtown office? Let's grab lunch at vegetarian and vegan friendly restaurants in Midtown where we can share a variety of tasty dishes.

Meet other people who work from home or are otherwise at home weekdays at lunchtime. Working from home is terrific, but don't you also miss the social life of a busy office where lunch is often the high point of the day? We can bring our virtual office together to enjoy some conversation over a salad, pizza, white fish salad, burrito, sushi and any of the other foods Park Slope has to offer. We are busy individuals so being able to pickup some lunch close by in the neighborhood is important.

If you work from home in or near Westford, MA and would like to go grab some lunch and network once a month, then please join us...

Life is nutty. As an active parent and community member, I find it hard to get all the spiritual food and fellowship I need, and my nights are booked! Looking to get together with others who yearn for more of that soul nourishing time with other Christians to (loosely) discuss a pre-set book once or twice a month over lunch.

Let's get together for a Saturday later in the afternoon movie then dinner at a local Forest Hills, Metropolitan Avenue restaurant. Monthly picnics at Flushing Meadow Park (in the shade, of course) and playing board games. We will also have lunch/brunch Sundays and Saturday dim sum luncheons in Forest Hills on Queens Boulevard at a popular dim sum restaurant. Walking leisurely in the Juniper, Flushing Meadow and Forest Hills parks. All adults 55-60+

Friendly relaxing meals at least once a month. This is your chance to make new friends while trying out new restaurants and rediscovering old ones. REMINDER: I'm sorry but effective, August 29, 2007, if organizer's can not reach you via email, you will be removed from the group.

The plan is to spend anywhere up to $7 for lunch (before taxes/tip). The rules are: 1) No Fast Food. Sometimes these options aren't even less than $7, but let's avoid them. 2) A Full Lunch. This includes no going to get a slice of pizza or a hot dog. We're looking for options that are a nice/decent lunch. 3) Good Food! This may not be easy, but let's find options that are delicious and cheap! Can't wait to save on lunch!

The "Silicon Alley" of New York has grown on the strength of its relationships, often forged in the Flatiron District neighborhood.

Meet other anarcho-capitalists, market-anarchists etc for an enjoyable monthly lunch. For once, get to talk politics at lunch without ruining the party :) This group is purposefully narrow.

This is not a statement about your worth as a human being, we ju …
