Dinner Lab

This edgy members-only supper club (Atlanta membership is $125 a year) serves to elevate the kitchen unknowns–those inspired sous chefs and culinary up-and-comers quietly working at that stellar restaurant around the block or across the country–to crowds of foodies, gathered in auspicious locales around Atlanta once or twice a week. Members receive an invitation by email informing them of the dinner's price (usually beginning at $50), chef and menu. The location is a surprise until a day before the event. Dinners highlight the chef's creativity and are held in unusual, often underground spaces. Past Atlanta events have been held at The Goat Farm, a boxing ring and an underground art gallery.
