Hellllllooooo Portland!

This is just a shot in the dark and something I’ve been thinking about for a while. I’m posting now not as an official, but to see if anyone is interested in this.

Alright! I’m a cook at a fine dining restaurant in Portland. I’m good at a very few things but cooking is something I can do. I’ve noticed that I will almost always cook too much food- and after hanging out with a large number of people who hate cooking or just don’t know how; I came to this idea.

Twice a month (maybe more maybe less) I’d like to set up a community table. 10-25 people would join together to eat a home cooked meal by me, and even a potluck style would be interesting. Then we wine dine and make friends. I’ve been living here for a lil over a year now and I’ve just failed trying to find friends. I know I’m not alone there.

Now here’s the hard part. I wanna be paid for my efforts but I know times are hard. I was considering doing a donation style. But I’m averaging that donations won’t even be enough to cover food cost. So I’m asking the people! What seems like a good general cost of two very good meals a month with new friends and drinks? I want to be fair and kind. Again this is just a soft pitch! Please reach out if interested in helping or participating. The more responses I get the easier it is to get the ball rolling.

Recap! I wanna feed you and be friends with you! It’d be dope to get paid, but if I could obtain enough donations to cover food cost then I would still do this. All right I’ve talked enough thank you!
