[edit | edit source]
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, then 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.
