Question: What would be another way to word a "dutch" party!? (everyone pays for their own meal)!?
I'm making invitations to a party where everyone will have to foot their own food bill!. Just wondering about a more elegant way to say it then dutch!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Straightforward!. Otherwise, they'll be someone who just won't "get it"!.

I would word the invitations, For John's 40th birthday, we have arranged for the use of a private banquet room at Hemmingway's on July 26, 2008 at 6:00 p!.m!. Dinner for this suprise party will be "on your own" and for your convenience the restaurant accepts cash, Mastercard and Visa!.

Then, I would enclose a sample menu so that the guests know that dinner will be a minimum of $20 per person!. If the restaurant does not cater to children, I would let the guests know that there is "no childrens menu" available at the restaurant!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I have no idea what other word to use besides dutch, but you can do something like this!.!.!.

Please join us a get together" at ::insert restaurant name and time:: for an informal lunch!. Please only bring yourself and a smiling face, no gifts!.""lunch will be dutch treat"!.

Good Luck

You could also include a menu from the restaurant you will be going to with your invitation!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Could it be a "pot luck" party!? Where everyone brings a dish to share!? It won't be much of a party if everyone pays for their own food, kinda like walking into McDonald's at lunch and going "All right! Party time!"Www@FoodAQ@Com

BYOM (buy your own meal)Www@FoodAQ@Com

i would not know of another way to say that other then dutchWww@FoodAQ@Com
