What we’re about
This group is for people 50+ who would like to participate in intelligent, educated, pleasant conversation over casual restaurant dinners. For this group it’s as much about the conversation as the food.
Conversation will be casual, but might include topics such as science, psychology, current events, social issues, foreign films, the arts, fiction & non-fiction reading. And we’ll aim for a varied mix of restaurants.
We'll also schedule events such as World film discussion; Coffee, croissants & current events; and Bocce during warm weather.
Events will usually take place on the Westside & its suburbs.

If you’re interested in applying to the group, there must be a realistic, recognizable, fairly up-to-date photo. Please answer a few questions when you click on the ‘request to join’ button.
We look forward to hearing from you!

Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Film DiscussionLake View Taphouse, Lake Oswego, OR
These film events are for discussion of a film from the world at large. This means that most of the films we watch will be international or in some sense off the beaten path. All attendees should watch the film on their own sometime beforehand. (This is not a dinner event.)
==========
For this event let's meet at Lake View Taphouse at 7:00 pm.
https://lakeviewtaphouse.com/“American Fiction is a 2023 American comedy-drama film written and directed by Cord Jefferson in his feature directorial debut. Based on the 2001 novel Erasure by Percival Everett, it follows a frustrated novelist-professor who writes an outlandish satire of stereotypical “Black” books, only for it to be mistaken for serious literature and published to high sales and critical praise. It stars Jeffrey Wright.”
