“Founder” is a really fancy word for “the one who decided to try to get this thing going”. You can call me Jackie. (I’ve also just started the Foodinati Flickr group. Please join!)
I’m 29, a Chillicothe native who moved to London for a decade and then decided that Cincinnati was the place to be. I’ve only been in town for eight days, but already I’ve sensed that the Queen City has a lot on offer in terms of food.
At home, I’m a voracious but essentially lazy cook, so everything I make is super-uncomplicated. My fiancé is half-English, half-French, and the grandson of a prolific and renowned food critic, so we’re hoping never to give birth to picky eaters.
I love to entertain, though I rarely delve into the place-setting-and-centerpiece, Martha Stewart level of entertaining. My friends are usually pretty happy with some good food and interesting people to talk to, and I’ve always just emailed out my invitations instead of using templates from Real Simple or whatever. I’m a lo-fi, informal hostess. Here’s a collage from some of my past parties to give you a better idea of the vibe.

Well Ms. 5chw4r7z and I enjoyed meeting you on Fountain Square tonight, we love the fact we always run into an old one or meet a new friend there. Hope to see you at the next supper club.

we just hit your website for the first time on 4/4/08. andrea and i are a couple who have been looking for this type of club for quite awhile. we are devout foodies who have had trouble finding kindred spirits. we have many friends but they just don’t share our passion of good food and wine. we would love to find out more. we both have kitchen skills (although as good as i think i am i’m not in andreas league). after looking at the collage i realize we may be a little older then the average, we are in our early fifties but we are very young of mind. please contact us if you are looking to expand your circle as we think we could add to the event.
