Our Mission
It's really simple - we want to serve you your next favorite meal.
NOMINATE ethically supports and explores the diverse cuisines of the world that are located right here in our own backyard. We work with local restaurants to shine a light on dishes curated by passionate individuals and organizations.
How It Works
When you purchase an event from NOMINATE, you're getting a fresh meal meant for two people on the targeted date. Come pick up your meal at Three Heads Brewing in Rochester, or Nowhere Lounge in Buffalo, and we keep it a surprise until it's in your hands to add to the excitement.
From well known local favorites to hidden gems off the beaten path, the NOMINATE team works hard with every restaurant to prepare a menu that makes each experience special. Not only do we communicate with restaurants to find what food best highlights their cuisine, we also test each meal ahead of time to make sure it's something we're thrilled to serve you.
The Team
NOMINATE is a small, dedicated team of food lovers and pathfinders who share a common passion for the amazing, wide range of cuisines in the Greater Rochester and Buffalo Areas.
