What is Cooking & Dining Adventures?
Cooking & Dining Adventures is a wonderful way to meet other Newcomers in a more intimate setting. It is for couples and singles who like to cook, eat, and share conversation around the table. Sometimes there will be foods, ingredients, and techniques that might be unfamiliar.
How does it work?
- Groups of 8 (couples or two singles) dine together once a month at a member’s home, rotating locations each month.
- A menu and recipes for the dinner are provided by the Coordinators.
- Each group schedules their own dinner dates with each couple taking a turn to host.
- Dates should be scheduled in a collaborative manner so the most members of the group can participate.
- If a couple or individual cannot participate, it is their job to notify the host and find their own alternate.
- The host prepares the main course and sets the table. Other group members prepare and bring the other courses (appetizer, salad/soup, dessert). We suggest that each couple take a turn at bringing one of the courses.
- Everyone provides the wine or cocktail that has been suggested to accompany their course.
What if I can’t host 8 people for dinner in my home?
If you are a single, team up with another single (we cannot help you find a dining partner) that has a home that can accommodate 8 for dinner.
OR
You (a couple or a single) can sign up to be an alternate. Alternates do not host the dinner – they fill in when regular member(s) can’t attend. They bring one of the menu items to the dinner.
