Marco Lam took his wife to the Boulder Blind Café for a date night. “The feeling of being in the pitch dark and listening to beautiful music had an ethereal quality that was transcendent,” he said. “The experience of eating food without any visual cues heightened the sensory appeal of a well-cooked meal. I found the blind waiters’ quality of service excellent and the experience gave me insight into the challenges and strengths of their unique community. It was easily one of the best dates I have taken my wife on all year, and we experienced a closeness in the darkness that was rare in a public place.”
Kalea Wright had this to say about her experience at Austin’s Blind Cafe: “I went to the show last night and it was magical! It truly gave me a new look on life. Thank you so much for the opportunity to share the evening with you all.”
