This differs from other kinds of evening get-togethers in that the expectation is that the meal will be over in time for host and guests to attend to other evening events. There is not an expectation that it will become an extended visit or that other agenda is attached to this evening other than the meal. Dinner Clubs can be organized in a number of ways, including: - each household taking turns with cooking and hosting a meal, - each household taking turns cooking an evening meal for the others and bringing it to their house(s) at dinner time; usually the meal is a casserole style to facilitate preparation and transportation. - each household takes turns hosting a potluck meal which is prepared by the guests and brought to the host location to eat together.
