    Lunch Date is a Philippine television variety show broadcast by GMA Network. Originally hosted by Orly Mercado, Rico J. Puno, Chiqui Hollmann and Toni Rose Gayda, it premiered on June 9, 1986 replacing Student Canteen. The show concluded on March 19, 1993. It was replaced by SST: Salo-Salo Together in its timeslot.

    Overview[edit]

    Lunch Date started airing on June 9, 1986 replacing Student Canteen, with Orly Mercado, Rico J. Puno, Toni Rose Gayda and Chiqui Hollmann serving as the hosts. The show originally aired from Studio A of the old GMA building in EDSA, but moved to the GMA Broadway Centrum in 1987, the first of GMA's programs to do so.

    When the show was reformatted after a year, it retained both Gayda and Hollman and added Randy Santiago, Keno, Lito Pimentel, Tina Revilla, Louie Heredia, Jon Santos, Dennis Padilla, Manilyn Reynes, Willie Revillame and Ai-Ai delas Alas to the show.
