  This website is beautifully designed and very readable. Good to see there are still websites that care about the users experience.

  I went to one of these about 9 years ago, and to be honest I had no idea they were still a thing. They were very talked about back then but I hadn't really heard of them again until now.

  It was an enjoyable experience, and it was when I first moved to London for my first job so it felt very trendy and cosmopolitan and grown-up to me. Maybe I should look into it again...

  I have enjoyed the supper-clubs of Buenos Aires in the past, partly because it was much cheaper and better food that the restaurants (from what I understood, it was very difficult to get a kitchen and/or liquor license) and partly because it was an interesting way to meet people. I think this is an international space that AirBnB is successfully filling with their experiences?

  We do a private version of this with friends a few times a year, each household takes turns hosting a full dinner party, sometimes with a theme and sometimes not.

  It's a good way to exercise one's hosting skills, keep in practice in the kitchen, and socialize.

  Is there a website that anyone uses that focuses on the United States?
