I hosted Supper Club by myself in both 2013 and 2014, but I cheated and imported my sister tigerlily_blue both times, not to mention her (then boyfriend) husband Ethan in 2014. After taking 2015 off, gieves and I hatched a plan that she would co-host with me at my house. She had, of course, hosted many times previously with her husband darlox, but she looked forward to the ( Read more... )

For last year's Supper Club the theme was "Jewish Soul Food". That night was a resounding success, but there were many recipes that didn't make the cut for that first meal. Therefore, rather than coming up with an entirely new theme I followed the Hollywood model and declared a sequel. Therefore, 364 days after Jewish Soul Food, it was time for ( Read more... )

If it's a new year, it must be time for me to host Supper Club again! For my fifth episode of Supper Club, I had a very clear idea of what the theme would be almost as soon as I was finished hosting my Leg of Lamb extravaganza. I knew I wanted to do Jewish soul food.

It took 21 months, but on February 18 I hosted Supper Club again. This time around I didn't not have a specific unifying theme for my culinary experiments. Instead, it was basically an excuse to make a leg of lamb. As the song goes

Life's like a lamb

And it's time to tell you all about the fabulous Supper Club meal that xhollydayx and I hosted on May 22. We billed it as "A Rose is a Rose is a Rose" with the slogan of "The Stinkiest Rose of Them All." This, of course, referred to garlic, with the name being a reference to the famous garlic themed eatery The Stinking Rose, which was actually mentioned in a ( Read more... )

Our turn to host Supper Club came up again. What with one thing and another, this was only the sixth Supper Club held in the ten months since we hosted our Tapas night back in May of 2008. Here's the list:

July 26, 2008 - The Don and sparklie_lady - Summer Grill Fest. We dined al fresco.

September 13, 2008 - darlox and gieves - Pixie Dust & Cellulose. A disturbingly ( Read more... )

Last October, darlox had a great idea. Actually, I'm not completely certain that it was his idea, but he certainly took the idea and pushed it to fruition. His thought was that given the number of friends he had who liked to cook and consume good food, it would be an enjoyable enterprise to combine those interests on a regularly scheduled basis. His ( Read more... )
