Food/drink themed evenings - new ideas needed

27 replies

We're a household of 4 adults. Throughout lockdown/ Tier 3 etc we have had a themed evening every so often given that we can't go our to eat or have people round to dinner. As we live in an area that has had tight restrictions for so long, I'm out of new ideas, and now that Christmas is behind us I think we're ready die another special food night.

We've done Italian, tapas, Greek, Mexican; wine and gin tastings; a formal dinner; cocktail making. Did BBQs to death in the warm weather.

Indian/Chinese/Thai are our regular takeaways, occasionally fish & chips so wouldn't do anything like that and we have a roast dinner every week anyway.

We've done special brunches for birthdays; I enjoy an afternoon tea but the others aren't so keen, luckily had one in a very tiny window when we were allowed to meet outside.

We all eat/drink most things. New ideas would be appreciated - ideally where we can theme food and drinks but that's not essential. Thank you

Or a meal from a novel? The March family's Christmas breakfast - Ratty and Mole's picnic - a Mad Hatter's tea party - Heidi's cheese on toast - any number of things from Dickens - a Joy Luck Club Chinese?

Wow so many suggestions thank you! Not all would work for the family but would for other groups once we're allowed to entertain again - as far off as that seems right now!
