yay! first item on my ‘thirty before 30′ list is checked off! if you’d like to read more about why i’m doing this, i wrote about starting my list a few months back.

 

getting to know friends

i started my own supper club! why? because i like secret clubs. i like a bit of glamor. i like meeting new people. i like a fun excuse to get out of the house. i definitely like eating.

 

my mum and her friends would meet quarterly for their ‘ladies’ lunch’ and growing up i thought that it was all the height of grown up lady fun. and when alex shared her supper club adventures, i decided i wanted that thing too! my plan is a (almost) monthly meeting of myself and 3 fab friends, plus 3 of their fab friends! we doll up, we dine out and everyone has a bit of an adventure.

 

the downstairs dining room at the afghan gallery

for our first outing i chose the afghan gallery restaurant on brunswick street. i’d heard it had good interesting food, and upstairs was low floor dining amongst cushions and rugs. ooh! exotic!

upstairs was cozy and the perfect comfy place for a languorous afghan feast

our feast was a really cheap but delicious banquet menu, but it involved delicious sizzly meat, bread, rice, and curries etc.

it was really fun, i didn’t need the ice breaker cards – we all hit it off and chatted happily into the night. i can’t wait to organize the next outing for the 7 dolls supper club!

do you have a monthly dinner with friends? or a supper club of you own?
