Take her to a relaxation garden, in ur area or to the beach...it must not involve food. Just light drink (preferably juice)

Take her to Olumo rock.

If you wanna bang her, take her to a sports environment like snooker, bowling then after drinks at the club. Don't drink much, let her do all that. You would be surprised its easier than written.

If you are looking for a real thing, find her type of movies, rent or buy one, make a very easy home cooked dinner and enjoy the night OR try concerts: music, comedy. They work too. Good luck

A special romatic candle light dinner with just the two of you. If possible, the both of u should cook.

For a first date with someone you do not know very well the last thing i want is to be in your face answering 'what are ur hobbies' questions (more like interrogations) over dinner. Mixing a casual meal with an activity which is more fun and you also get to learn about the person. So movies or a show (comedy or bar with live music - jazz or whatever works)bowling, visit a gallery, the beach. After the first date then feel free to have that intimate candle light dinner. My opinion.
