Gourmet Club

Do you love good food, wine and conversation? Open to couples of all descriptions, our dinner parties of groups of 8 are usually held the second Saturday of each month, starting at 6:00 pm. Four course meals are planned ahead, often with an exciting theme, recipes are shared, the hosts set a lovely table and we gather to eat. You are only limited by your imagination. All costs are shared. We may be called the ‘Gourmet Club’ but it’s really all about yummy food shared with CFUW friends. Traditionally, there is a Christmas Hors d’oeuvres party and in June there is a BBQ where the club members’ partners do all the cooking.
