What is Just for Dinner?
Just for Dinner is a lifestyle event sponsored by The Group to create an opportunity for professionals in the lifestyle to meet in a more discreet and elegant setting. For those in the lifestyle who appreciate a slender ankle in a red-soled pump, the hand-stitched interior of a classic German automobile and a 2007 Insignia, this is for you. It also serves as the first step in becoming a member of The Group who provides its' members with access to private events, parties, and getaways throughout the world.
UPCOMING DINNERS
Dear Friends,
Thank you for your interest in Just For Dinner. In 2015, we held our first Just For Dinner event as a relaxed evening of fine dining, wonderful pairings and the chance to spend time mixing and mingling with other professionals in the lifestyle; there are no bands or live music, no organized after-parties, and no multi-day agenda – as the name implies, we’re all gathering Just For Dinner.
Today, attendance at Just For Dinner also meets the pre-requisite for those singles, couples, and throuples seeking an invitation to The Group's well-established luxury weekends, international expeditions, and private yacht charters. Whether you're seeking lifestyle events that are more selective via membership in The Group, or simply want to enjoy the evening with fellow professionals in the lifestyle, Just For Dinner will be an evening to remember.
We look forward to spending the evening getting to know you a little better and provide you an opportunity to both meet fellow members of the lifestyle and, if desired, become a provisional member of The Group.
If you have any additional questions, please feel free to email me directly at george@doyouknowgeorge.com.
Warmest Regards,
George

Dear Ann and George,
Thank you very much for organizing such a wonderful evening. We had a great time getting to know some interesting people in our vicinity which otherwise we wouldn't have a chance to meet if it weren't for your event. Will look forward to exploring the possibility of joining you on your future events.
Keep us posted.
Sincerely,
O and Z ;);

Combining each chef's seasonal tasting menu with the sommelier's best pairings, these five course experiences are discreet, elegant and leisurely. They are also a perfect way to meet other professional couples, like yourselves, who are in the lifestyle.
These Dinners are held at "Michelin-rated" 1, 2 and 3 star restaurants or may feature a "James Beard" chef with tasting menus with as many as 15-courses. The cost for these dining experiences will be higher than other dinners presented.
The "plus" Dinners include the option of a deluxe hotel room or suite and the opportunity to linger after dinner with friends, both old and new, without the need to dash home.
The "Aboard" Dinners are hosted on privately owned yachts, typically in excess of 90-feet. These gracious evenings afloat are limited in size based on the vessel's Coast Guard certification and typically fill immediately once announced.
A Personal Chef preparing a dinner in a unique private residence offers the most intimate of settings; however, the evening is still Just For Dinner.
In addition to meeting other local professionals in the lifestyle, these dinners may also provide a path to membership in The Group.
