Hi Sharon Mellish. I am considering attending. I would like to find out----- Are you a 'soul' lady from the SOUTHERN USA?? What experience have you got in cooking Southern food. thanks. Phil.

Sharon Mellish | 7 years

Hi Phil No neither my daughter, nor myself ,are from the South but, if you look at our previous events you will see that every month we host a supper club with a different theme from Mexican, Korean, Filipino to Italian, French or Greek. We cook everything from scratch and do a lot of research before we write our menus and of course, lots of test cooking to perfect each dish. We were inspired to choose this month's theme from a very recent trip to the United States and we also have some very dear friends from Alabama, whom we consulted with to ensure we provided a very authentic menu. I hope that answers your questions and I really hope you choose to dine with us. Good food, good vibes, Good Thymes guaranteed!

Hi Phil Are you still interested in coming to our next supper club? Sharon

PHIL PHILLIPS | 7 years

hi Sharon. have booked 2 places. not sure about your location. i guess that this info will follow. Phil.

PHIL PHILLIPS | 7 years

i see that only 4 people at so far booked. What is your minimum number? i would not want to attend if you do not have a 'reasonable' number of guests. ok.

Sharon Mellish | 7 years

Hi Phil Let me reassure you. The majority of my bookings do not come from this site. I have an additional four people booked and we normally have 12 guests booked but the majority tend to book in the week leading up to the event. I understand your concerns but please be assured you will not be sitting there with just another couple. If you could let us have your menu choices and any dietary requirements you may have, that would be great. I hope WEfiFo have given you our full address but please advise if they haven't and we look forward to meeting you both on the 30th. Sharon
