Ethiopian Food Club

Friends new and old, we are restarting a wonderful tradition that slipped away once we became parents: Food Club.

Food Club is an excuse to get together and...eat! We invite various people we know (and some of them bring people they know), and we all hang out for a night enjoying each others company...and food. We pick a food theme (for those that love to cook, it is an excuse to experiment, and for those who don't, an excuse to pick something up to bring). We don't try to attempt to coordinate who brings what...it always works out if everyone brings what they want. We have had as few as 4 people and as many as 40. We have had mostly amazing feasts...with 1 or 2 less memorable (from a food standpoint only!).

We stopped Food Club once we and many of our friends started having kids. We tried with kids, but it was just not the same. So in this new version, we will do a Food Club once a quarter, and give everyone with kids plenty of advance notice so they can get a sitter...a great excuse for an adult night out! And if you can't get a sitter, do rock-paper-scissors to decide who gets to come!

If you can come, please RSVP ASAP so we can make sure we have enough forks, plates, etc.! Bring a dish to share (buying something already made is JUST FINE - I hear the injera at Zuma Grocery at 129 NW 85th St is amazing) and a beverage to share. No need to post WHAT you are bringing - it always seems to work itself out.

We do have a very small kitchen so please bring things ready to go (lukewarm is just fine!)
