Comments from past participants:

“I would like to sincerely thank you for hooking me up with the girl of my dreams.”
Eric T., 31, Hong Kong

“The evening was very well planned out, with very thoughtful arrangements too.  Kudos to that. Happy to have been able to have my first Fishbowl experience and hope to be able to participate in future events.”
Mariana, 20, Brazil

“Actually, I searched online for some event organizer like you guys, what I want is the speed dating kind events with foreigners that held in Beijing. Based on the search results from Google, you guys have the most related web pages.  I checked the comments on those websites about your past events, they were received high compliments. And if you input key words like speed dating Beijing or speed dating specialists Beijing in Google, your websites are always the first ones on the first result page. I tried your event last month for the first time and I think you and Allison really deserve those compliments, and I think probably word of mouth is another popular way for people to know your events. I enjoyed meeting you guys and some other funny people in the event, and would like to introduce Fishbowl Events to my friends if they’re interested in such things too!”
Kevin, 27, China

“I’d never been to a speed dating event before and, to be fair, was not enthusiastic about the idea. That all changed when I arrived. I was expecting some pretty desperate looking people and found, to my suprise and joy, some very attractive girls, some extremly pretty indeed! As for the guys, well I’ll abstain from commenting as that might leed to some confusion and that’s not what I’d come for!!! The evening was extremly relaxed and pleasant and in some parts very entertaining and fun. If I had to do it again, I’d do it twice!”

“A great way to get out and meet interesting & attractive girls in Beijing in a fun, relaxed, and hip-scene. Came away with a few dates, so no complaints here! If you’ve never given it a go and the thought has crossed your mind, it’s definitely worth trying out!”
Vincent Ng, Director of Program Development

“Thank you for arranging last nights event. I had a really fun night and all the girls that came along were fabulous. Also, the organization was faultless and the location was superb.”
Steven Wilson, United Kingdom

“I had a wonderful time and met some really awesome people. I love the venues that you choose…hip yet private. For all of the girls and guys out there it is so nice to have gatherings like this. It beats meeting in a smoke bar setting. This event helps make Beijing smaller and much more interesting. I appreciate all of your efforts!”
Ami Wolsey, Educator, Canada

“Trendy and new speeddating locations, with professional and experienced organization people. I enjoyed many funny talks with lovely ladies. A perfect way to do something ‘socially different’ in Beijing and meet new friends without any obligations, while trying to impress your opposite party.”
B.S., General Manager, Belgium

“Thanks very much for putting this event together on Sunday. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I walked in but it turned out to be a lot of fun. Met some very interesting people.”
Khurram Tahir, Technology Executive, USA / Pakistan

“I had a good time and believe others did too. It was my first time, I may very possible join it again. Thank you for your kind help.”
Ms. Xu, Production, China

“Thanks for arranging the speed dating event last week. I met some really interesting people, both male and female. I have had dates with two men, and while neither was a lifelong match, it was still great fun to go out and have a nice time. I look forward to attending future events you’ve arranged!”
Tamara Palmer, Art Teacher, USA

“I think you two did a great job in organizing the event, and I am sure the Speed Dating will become more and more popular and well-known with your quality control and wonderful arrangement. I had a great time and was impressed by the quality of the event. I think it’s not only a chance to look for Mr. Right, but also a great opportunity to meet interesting people and make friends.”
Jennifer, Senior translator and simultaneous interpreter, China

“A great way to meet 20 new people in one go in an easy-going environment! I have met some really cool friends in Beijing through speed dating and Hook n Cook! I highly recommend others to give it a go!”
Kelvin, Lawyer, Australia

“I was a participant in hook and cook and one of the regular speed dating events, both of which I found to be very pleasant experiences. They were both organized with much thought and creativity and I look forward to the next one.”
