Each dinner includes a complete meal for one person. If you would like to order more than one dinner, please just write it down in the comments section in the sign form.
Each Friday you’ll get an authentic and different Bengali dinner prepared by Nibble chef Afruza Akther. With this supper club, we’ll also be providing a little cultural information with each meal, so it will be a full culinary-cultural experience!
The Bengali supper club allows customers access to fantastic food, while also supporting Afruza and Nibble Kitchen. Like the community supported restaurant (CSR) concept, this supper club will help streamline Afruza’s business: she’ll know about your preferences, gain regular customers, and be able to widen her culinary offerings.
We will finalize the Supper Club menu soon, and we’ll keep you informed. In the meantime, take a look at the March menu– Afruza will keep the best dishes from it.
