Quite some time ago we were all having dinner at someone’s house when someone suggested we start a rotating dinner club. But instead of just cooking whatever, we would cook food from different countries.
So we all thought of a bunch of different countries, put the names into a paper bag and started.
Members: Shane, Brenda, Al, Sarah, Adam and Jenny
Rules: The host couple must make the majority of the food items, but the other 2 couples will be asked to bring a dish or drinks.
Here is what we have done so far:
Shane & Brenda: Mexico
Adam & Jenny: Madagascar
Al & Sarah: Japan
Shane & Brenda: Germany
Adam & Jenny: Choose your own country – so I choose The Czech Republic (food from my childhood)
Al & Sarah: France
Shane & Brenda: Greece
We started this a long time ago, but due to all three couples getting married, summer and many other things in our lives we are not always able to follow the once a month idea initially thought. I am sure all the members will agree that we have had a great time doing this. We all strive to cook items what are very traditional and not always something you would get in a North American restaurant.
This past Saturday Shane and Brenda hosted Greece and we had 2 guest, possibly new members attending – Sarah’s sister Jennifer and her husband Jarred (just moved back to Calgary from London). We always draw the next country at the last meal – Adam and I are next – we are doing Russia.
