Breakfast & Brunch

It was back in 2011 that the very first Dinner Club took place. Here we are 15 years later meeting each month for an evening of food and fellowship. So, the next two Dinner Club meals are to celebrate Dinner Club's 15 years - with this first meal at the lovely L'ulivo Italian restaurant on Villiers Street just next door to Charing Cross Station. *Here at L'ulivo Charing Cross, located in 23 Villiers St (loo-lee-voh), our customers are the number one priority, and we‘ve been taking care of them our way for years. Freshly prepared authentic Italian cuisine is what we love and what keeps our customers coming back. We’ve always endeavoured to provide the best food, service and atmosphere of any London eatery.* *All of the ingredients we use here at L'ulivo Charing Cross are just that: local. We stock our restaurant kitchen in much the same way that we stock our home kitchen, with daily deliveries of fresh ingredients that we select ourselves, at market each morning.* You can check out the A La Carte Menu using the link below. [L'Ulivo menu ](https://www.lulivocharingcross.uk/menu/menu?menu=677) Our evening will begin at 6pm for those that wish to come for a pre-dinner drink at Retro Bar on George Court (just off The Strand). This is a great opportunity to meet and chat to others coming for the meal in a more relaxed and informal setting before going for the meal. Our table at L'Ulivo is booked for 7.30pm. Please meet us there if you are not attending pre-dinner drinks. Our previous meal at L'Ulivo was delicious and the staff were very attentive - so this should be a lovely way to start our 15th birthday celebrations. If you would like to come along for this meal, please RSVP as soon as you can. You will need to pay a deposit of £11. £10 of which will go to your meal and the remaining £1 is split between PayPal and Meetup costs. Meetup will also charge a 'handling fee' that is part of their terms and conditions for hosting the group on their website. I do not need pre-orders for this meal as we will order on the night. Following the meal, for those of us that wish to, we will go on for post-dinner drinks (probably either back at Retro Bar or at Halfway to Heaven). This is a lovely way of rounding off the evening but is also non-compulsory to attend. So, come along and celebrate 15 years years of Dinner Club - it'll be great to see you.

[Columbus library link to book](https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C3351321) Location: The Goat River South 219 S High St, Columbus, OH 43215 Street parking is free on Sundays [Menu](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/686d3ed16745133042482c5f/t/68ff654dbb03b96875430bde/1761568077220/all_brunch-20250311.pdf) Book summary: On a hot day in Bethlehem, a twelve-year-old Palestinian-American girl is yelled at by a group of men outside the Church of the Nativity. She has exposed her legs in a biblical city, an act they deem forbidden, and their judgement will echo on through her adolescence. When our narrator finally admits to her mother that she is queer, her mother's response only intensifies a sense of shame: 'You exist too much,' she tells her daughter. Told in vignettes that flash between the U.S. and the Middle East--from New York to Jordan, Lebanon, and Palestine--Zaina Arafat's debut novel traces her protagonist's progress from blushing teen to sought-after DJ and aspiring writer.
