About This group is for people wanting to find secret dining events. It is also a place for people planning to hold a secret dining event to advertise and sign up guests. What is secret dining? Secret dining is when someone uses their house or some other space to run a cross between an amateur restaurant and an intimate dinner party. Hosts serve up a menu of fresh home cooked dishes and guests make a donation or bring a gift to so say thank you. (A recommended donation can be specified in advan …

Brrr... it's cold out there. Come join like minded foodies for Sunday dinner. Whereas Sunday is often leftovers night, join us for a home cooked meal and make new friends. Comfort food will be the theme as the cold weather leaves us craving heavier dishes and warmer food. The emphasis will be on fresh, locally grown and organic produce, free-range meats and California wines. Think sinful desserts made with Calebaut Chocolate, sweet berries, or Creme Brulee if you're game. If you like cooking wit …

We love listening to interesting stuff. From String Theory to Seventeenth Century Scandal and everything in between. We're foodies at heart, love the New Yorker, dabble with Freakanomics and have been known to indulge in a bit of RadioLab. There is just so much out there and finding it might be quite overwhelming. Also, the cool people making these amazing audio bytes (Audio/Podcast producers) need hints on making their programmes, what their listeners really thought and maybe some inspiration …

There are lots of dining groups on Meetup; I belong to some. And they're great. But I don't see anything devoted to the goofy, offbeat restaurants and snack shops and events that can make eating a purposefully amusing experience. Tabletops before tablecloths, go cups before goblets, fun before fancy, cute before culinary. I don't want to be a decadent foodie all the time! This isn't intended to be devoted to bargain, cheap-eats places, though most of the things I'm interested in for this group …

As a true foodie, AND a weekend-worker, I feel a need for socializing, eating out and cooking with other single gay men that share this passion.

Let's meet up and do fun things in the Bay Area together! Activities can range from movies, dinners, foodie events, conventions, tours, game nights, karaoke, museums, bounce houses, anime events to MMA/UFC events. Anything and everything interesting we can think of! So come and join if you're in you're 25-45, and looking to make awesome friends and have a great time!  :)

Go to places with good burgers, pulled pork, steaks, etc and consume them, with good beer/wine.

Do you love cupcakes? They're small, bite-sized and utterly yummy! What's not to like, right? Over the past few years I've enjoyed the cupcake craze started by Sex and the City in New York and Los Angeles. I've visited the original Magnolia and Crumbs bakeries in those fine cities, now I want to explore cupcake yumminess in the Bay Area with other cupcake fans. Every month or so we'll visit a cupcake venue, compare flavors and textures, and share our opinions. I look forward to meeting you over …
