I've been on dates with weird, casual settings (I had one at the hole-in-the wall local place I mentioned, one at a coffee shop, etc.), and I really enjoyed them. I think it reflected my date's laid-back, calm peronality.
I also had one at some really fancy place. I think that was boring, especially for a 19 year old (me). I was bored for almost the entire date. That's no environment meant for a first or second date, that's one meant for the "Oh-my-God-I'm-going-to-propose-tonight" kind of things.
So, yeah, I think dates (at least for my age group) are meant for kind of fun was to get to know someone better, and I think a fun or casual environment is best for a date, and especially a first or second one. I can really tell if a person's lighthearted and happy or serious and humorless from their venue of choice.
Also, I know people who've had success with home-cooked meals and a date in their home, so that doesn't seem like a terrible idea to me. Of course, it's up to you.
I am homosexual. A lesbian, actually. If you have a problem with that, then it sucks for you. It's not your problem. It's not even a problem. I quite like it this way.
