How Eddy Lu Of GrubWith.Us Makes Money Having Dinner With New Friends

When Eddy Lu and his business partner moved to Chicago to open a restaurant, they realized they didn’t know anybody in town. Rather than hit the loud, crowded bars and networking events every week, Eddy and his buddy decided to do what any good creative entrepreneur would do: make a business out of meeting new people. They launched Grubwith.us a few months ago and their social dining experience has been gaining traction ever since. Watch my video interview with Eddy to learn how he turned an all too common situation around into a successful business! If you can’t see the video above, please click here. This interview is a part of Beyond The Pedway, a site created by Tim Jahn dedicated to discovering what drives creative entrepreneurs.
