Are you a foodie who is looking to meet new people? YWCA Gourmet Club brings together members to build community connections through the joy of sharing food.
On five designated evenings, groups of 8-10 will gather to enjoy a gourmet meal, make connections, and enjoy each other's company over a home-cooked meal. The YWCA provides suggested menus and recipes for all meeting dates. However, groups can choose to prepare the meals at home or meet at a restaurant.
The menus and recipes provided are delicious yet not complex. The host will pick the dish they wish to prepare and each of the additional participants will prepare the other dishes on the menu.
The Gourmet Club will meet 5 times between October 2024 and May 2025.
- Registration will open mid-August and close September 13, 2024
How Does Gourmet Work?
-
- The YWCA will form groups of 8-10 people using the member information provided in the registration form.
- Prior to the start of the season, the YWCA will provide contact information for your assigned group, suggested hosting dates and the suggested menus and recipes for the full session.
- Members of the group will take turns hosting either at their home or a venue of choice.
- Your team will self organize and decide on dates and a host for each date.
- Most importantly, Gourmet club is about having fun while sharing a love of food!!
This year, and for the very first time, for one of the meals we are thrilled to be partnering with Darien businesswoman Megan Ruppenstein, Founder of Four Forks Catering & Events. We will work with Megan to feature a curated menu to either prepare in your home, or purchase.
