Adam Levine Takes All First Dates To McDonald's

How can you tell that if you meet Adam Levine that you are not just a groupie he will take back to his hotel room, but someone instead, who really means a great deal to him. He will take you to McDonald's. In a recent interview he says that he always takes first dates there. he has them dress up nicely and he will often wear a tuxedo and then he takes them to McDonald's for what he calls a "cost effective" date. If the date goes well they can do something else because they are dressed for it and if it does not go well he drops them right back off at their place.

      VIPblonde - In-n-Out is a little bit of heaven on a plate.

      Lotta - Get yourself to the west coast and prepare to EAT! Well CA and AZ. I'm so bummed we don't have them in Oregon. Animal Style is my favorite.

    It's not like he is buying them some McNuggets and then expecting them to put out. By going somewhere that is familiar to most people and comfortable you could relax and just be yourself, which would give both parties a chance to see if there is some chemistry. I still don't like the guy, but I can respect this.

    I think what annoys me the most is the fact that he tells the woman to dress up. Like he's trying to trick her. I have no problem with a guy taking me on a "cost effective" date, especially if it was our first night out. But don't tell me to put on my good clothes for a night with Ronald McDonald!

    Ok, I am now taking all dates to one of the above.
    1. Bliss Raw Cafe. Raw Vegan food. And next door to K-9 Komminsary
    2. Cosmic Cafe. Vegan Indian food and my most favorite place to eat on earth so far. And they have free yoga classes upstairs.
    3. Spiral Dinner. A wide variety of vegan and vegitarian foods.
    4. A Thai House . If you can't handle the spices we are not compatable.
    5. Jason's Deli. Just cause I love Jason's Deli Zuchinni Sandwich and Salad Bar.
    6. Hot Damm Tamales. It's cute quaint and has awesome food.

    Not McDonalds tormented pigs and frankenfoods.

      @VIPblonde - you are so welcome for the Veggie Restaurant list. ;-)

      I thought of a couple things as well...
      Not fancy, but my personal favorite for sushi = http://www.fresh-in-the-box.com/

      For nice, but not "stuffy" - I love = http://www.figsantamonica.com/
      The staff is super nice, and the chef is incredible. I generally take all out of town guests here, as it's always a hit with them.
      My personal favorites are the Pastaless Lasagne, the Vegetable Curry, and the Sunday Brunch Poblano and Mushroom Tacos.

      (If Enty actually reads the comments, he would probably love the Bacon Waffle A La Mode with Bacon Ice Cream and the Bacon Wrapped Bacon. ;-)

      Final thing of my L.A. favorites is to go Downtown to San Antonio Winery and get a case of San Antonio Cardinale. It has become my wife's personal favorite wine in the world, so always good to have a bottle on hand. ;-)

    Update: According to my girlfriend this is a dick move. Good thing I took her bowling on the first date. But I can see where he's coming from. If you make it through McD's with a good sense of humor and grace and aren't obviously "Oh hell no! Mr. Rock Star can take me someplace nicer!" You clearly aren't there for the glamour of it (or are a pretty good actress).

    Also - really? This level of outrage from a bunch of people who freely admit to being burrito whores?

      True story speaking on a complete opposite side of the coin:

      Several years ago, I took a young woman on a first date to a fairly expensive restaurant. Everything on the entire menu was about the same price level except for one item that was literally twice as much as anything else. Guess what she ordered? That's right,zz the only thing on the menu that was twice as expensive as anything else. Already thinking it was a bit of a snot move on her part, but thinking maybe that was her absolute favorite or something. Giving her benefit of the doubt - but, still Strike One.

      Then she proceeds to take about two or three bites literally, and no more. I asked her if the food was okay, or if we need to send it back or something? Did she want to order something else? She says, "No. That was one of the most amazing dishes I've ever eaten. It was great. I just can't eat another bite". So, she made me pay for the one and only thing on the menu that was twice as expensive as everything else - just so that she could have three bites! Sweetheart, that is the purpose of an appetizer or dessert. Benefit of the doubt is running low, quickly - Strike Two.

      Getting close to end of dinner, and the waiter asks if she wants to take the almost entire left over plate home in a wrapped box? She says, "No. It never tastes as good reheated". So, she made me order the most expensive thing on the menu, ate three bites, then wasted the rest of the food. To me it was rude, disrespectful, wasteful, and felt like some kind of power play to show that she is a princess and how she expects to be treated. - Strike Three.

      I excused myself to the bathroom (had already paid the server for the meal); got my car from the valet and left her butt sitting in the restaurant for I don't know how long before she figured out that I left. It was in an "out of the way" place in L.A. so it was going to take a long time to get a cab out there, which she hopefully had to pay for herself. Or at least she had to wait a long time to phone a friend to come get her.

      After that - all first dates were something low key and fun. First date with my now wife, we shopped at the grocery store and made dinner together. Totally fun. Obviously, those kind of dates worked out better for me in the long run - lol.

    I don't see anything really wrong with this considering how many people throw themselves at these folks for legitimate - and mere star fucking - reasons. And if they care about McD's for the date, they probably aren't interested in the man so much as the money. You can tell a lot by how a person reacts.

  41. Amber8:13 AM

    My only objection to the McD's date is that whenever I eat McD's (which is rare), I get a really bad headache from whatever it is they fry their food in. My friend and BF do to, so it's not just all in my head!

    I like the approach of the casual date, though. I never liked dating, and tradition "dates" make me really uncomfortable. I don't like letting the guy pay for me, because I'm an independent woman something-something-something.

    In all fairness, he's also dressed up, so it's not one-sided in that regard. I can see wanting to do something very casual, cheap & low-key early in the evening, just to see if you actually get along well enough to hang out for the rest of the evening/maybe overnight, but personally I'd pick something better than Mickey D's. (I'd say Taco Bell, but I just realized that might start, um, working on one's system about the time things got interesting later one. Any other ideas? A coffee shop?) And hey, at least he takes them home, as opposed to expecting them to find their own way back/pay their own cab fare.
