The Taps Dinner Club

Daryl and I were talking about forming a Taps dinner club last Friday evening.

A dinner club, as the name suggests, is a club where like minded people periodically get together to have dinner in a different restaurant every other month or so, choosing the restaurant based on theme, or chef, by rota, or just by random.

Now I don’t think we’d necessarily be talking about going to stupidly expensive multi-Michelin starred places, but certainly going somewhere which was known for producing high quality interesting and talked about food would be quite pleasant on a bi-monthly basis.

For instance, I’ve never had oysters before, but I like Mark Hix as a chef and have heard lots of good things about this place and would really quite like to go there.

[I’d also really, really like to go to the Mongolian Barbeque, because well, it’s a Mongolian Barbeque and I can only imagine that it’s filled with pits of charring meat and long tables of people drinking tankards of beer and banging said tankards on the table as they join in a rousing carouse of some sort (or at least that’s what will happen when we go)]

Then the next time around Daryl might want to go an authentic sushi restaurant like Nobu  or something. And then the next time, Irena (for example), would choose, and then so on and so on.

Anyway, we think it’s a good idea.

I’d say that a critical mass of people needed to kick this off would be about five or six and I’d suggest that we agree on bi-monthly meetings of the Taps dinner club.

So let us know what you think and we'll see if we can get this thing organised.
