EileenRBe Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I'm planning on hosting at least one dinner party while on the Whole30. The group I plan to host I believe will be very open to a Whole30 compliant menu. I'm thinking for after-dinner-sitting-around-the-table to serve herbal tea or an herbal tea spritzer. Would this be compliant, or is the idea to be done when you're done and not drag out meals? Also, I think it would be awesome to have a Whole30-Compliant Entertaining forum. I would love to see what others do who are hosting dinner parties. Thanks for being so helpful and responsive to my forum postings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renee Lee Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 You're totally fine with a herbal tea or something like that after dinner, especially as this is a dinner party. People celebrate and interact over food. It's one of the reasons why people are SO passionate about food choices (like politics and religion). Many Europeans stay at the dinner table for HOURS, just talking and digesting. Americans rush through everything; much to our detriment (in a number of ways) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EileenRBe Posted January 2, 2013 Author Share Posted January 2, 2013 Renee, you brought out the key part of my question--I do want guests to linger over the meal! In lieu of dessert I'm thinking about planning 3 or 4 courses, with the tea or spritzer after everything. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
