This group shares knowledge of a
country or region through discussion, photos, and experiencing international
foods.
Menus and recipes will be prepared by participants, and all will share in the
costs. Dinners will be held four times
a year, and diners may bring a friend or spouse. Singles are encouraged to
attend by themselves or with a friend.
The way we
work is for each person attending to bring their own alcoholic drinks and the
hostess provides the water, coffee, tea. We all take turns being hostess and
helping clear up the table at the end of the evening. When possible we help
cleaning dishes also. The gourmet member attending prepares the food and may
come alone or bring a spouse or friend.
Costs are
totaled. We ask each member how
much they spent and don't look at receipts. We add up the amount spent and
divide it by the number attending. Everyone then chips in what is necessary to
make the amount spent even.
The meal
menu and recipes are posted and first email gets to prepare their first choice.
We take turns on preparation. We don't expect first timers to do this.
