About
Us
The Dinner Club meets each week in selected hotels and restaurants
throughout a wide area. All the venues are carefully selected
for their ambiance, service and cuisine. The moment you arrive
you will be greeted by a
trained Dinner Club host who will make you feel welcome and relaxed
and will ensure introductions are made over a drink at the
bar prior to dining. The host will remain on hand throughout
the evening to see everything goes smoothly. All you need
to do is sit back and enjoy making new friends
Making New Friends
Numbers attending a dinner usually range between 12 and 20
members, dinner dances often attract a larger group. Throughout
the year we also organise special venues e.g. black tie events,
for up to 200 members from around the country.
Part of the fun is visiting different hotels and restaurants
and savouring many cuisines. However the main aim, and it
works extremely well, is to add another dimension to our members'
social lives.
Going Australian
During the course of the evening we encourage our hosts
to ask members to move places in order that they have the
opportunity to talk to a wider group. This is known as ‘going
Australian’ so called because it was first introduced
right back in the early days of The Dinner Club when it was
founded in Australia
Achieving A Balance
The Dinner Club make a determined effort to achieve a
reasonable balance between men and women, however the spirit
of the Dinner Club is to enjoy good food, lively conversation
and friendship, regardless of the mix.
New Venues
New restaurant venues are regularly added to our programme, often
upon a members recommendation. We also hold more informal
evenings involving such things as combining meals with horse
racing, theatre suppers, parties in members' homes and dinners
followed by dancing at the same venue or a local night spot.
At many venues there is the opportunity to take advantage
of favourable rates for overnight accommodation obtained by
The Dinner Club for members. You will soon be asking yourself
'why didn't I join the Dinner Club earlier?'
Regional
and National Events
Good food and good company are just two of the pleasures you'll enjoy
with The Dinner Club. It's a name that belies the extent of
other activities that are constantly being organised both
on a regional and national basis; from a night at the theatre
to a day at the races, from a weekend break to a holiday in
the sun.
