Dinner Lab – NEWISH popup supper club

July 9 – sorry, closed registration. I’ll be attending tonight and will report back!

Sign up here for future Miami dinners, a free community membership!

Dinner Lab, the world’s largest pop-up supper club is expanding their membership base in Miami. Unlike the current membership, they are creating a new community membership that is free to join and provides access to their dinners and their amazing network of people.  They are currently in 33 states and has been operating in Miami since 2014.  Simply put, they believe in bringing diverse people together over food to create an amazing experience, lasting friendships, and unique memories that can’t be recreated. (I so agree, that’s how I feel about my cooking classes!)

Bok Choy & Oyster Mushroom
Bok Choy & Oyster Mushroom
I’ve volunteered to give an easy, one-dish stir fry class at Diabetes Camp for Miami Children’s Hospital. Since becoming type 2 prediabetic myself, I am passionate about sharing what I’ve learned with kids and adults so they can get off medication. Easier than you think. If you know of any organizations, I’ll be happy to discuss giving a cooking demonstration.
