@@@@@----In order to join the event you must have a Meetup.com profile and join our meetup "Italian food and wine in Ireland"!!!!!!---@@@@@
Following the extraordinary success of our last gathering in this lovely home (probably the best event we have ever had!), we’re levelling up! 🎉
For the first time ever, this will be a paid community dinner where our own member and authentic Italian chef, Alex, will cook a full menu for everyone. This is a special occasion for our group — and I can’t wait for it!
And because our community spirit is everything, the open-table tradition stays: you’re warmly welcome to bring extra food and plenty of drinks (many drinks! 🍷🍾) if you’d like. Think of it as a chef-catered feast plus bonus treats from friends.
What’s Included
A multi-course dinner prepared by Chef Alex.
Live dish intros & demo: Alex will introduce, show, and explain each course and will do the 'dressage' (live plating) in front of everybody!!
A cosy, friendly house-party vibe in Dublin 4.
What You Can Bring (Optional)
A little something to share (drinks, aperitivo snacks, cheese, drinks... a dessert, drinks...).
If bringing food, please post in the comments so we can avoid duplicates.
