About the club
BTNDC is the Boys Thursday Night Dinner Club. Five friends, one booking a month, and a score out of fifty for every venue we sit down in.
01 / The club
We are five very good friends who, although all at a similar stage in life, have five very unique views on food and drink, ranging from the refined and knowledgeable to the fussy and pure uneducated! (We all know who we are talking about.)
The 'Club' started as a nice idea to give some an escape from her indoors 😉, turning into some great nights. But typical of us, it turned into a competition with one another rating the nights, as each venue is chosen in order by each member (somehow it turned out to be in age order!).
Now with five strong-minded, opinionated individuals, let the 'friendly' competition begin 🙈💣
02 / The rules
01
The venue is chosen in strict rotation, one member to each night. No committee, no veto.
02
Every table gets the same treatment: the room, the service and the cooking, marked honestly out of fifty.
03
Every score feeds the leaderboard. Nothing is adjusted later, and nothing is quietly forgotten.
03 / Diner profiles
Five opinions, five appetites, and no shortage of evidence.
