The Hollin Hills Supper Society: Where Mid-Century Meets Culinary Delight!

️Imagine a secret enclave nestled among the sleek lines of mid-century modern homes. The sun dips below the horizon, casting a warm glow on the Eames chairs and tulip tables. The air is filled with the hum of conversation, the clinking of vintage glassware, and the aroma of gourmet delights.

Welcome to the Hollin Hills Supper Society, where architects, artists, and foodies converge. Here’s what you need to know:

1. Architectural Ambiance: Our gatherings take place in rotating Hollin Hills homes. Picture yourself sipping a martini in a living room adorned with abstract art, while the fireplace crackles and the Noguchi lamp casts intriguing shadows.

2. Mid-Century Menus: Forget avocado toast – we’re all about retro culinary flair. Our potluck dinners feature dishes like “Atomic Meatloaf” (served with a side of geometric salad), “Eames Chair Risotto” (each grain perfectly aligned), and “Sputnik Jell-O Shots” (because every party needs a touch of space-age whimsy).

3. Dress Code: Channel your inner Don Draper or Joan Holloway. Think tailored suits, A-line dresses, and cat-eye glasses. Bonus points for vintage aprons and pocket squares.

4. Conversation Topics: We discuss more than just cantilevered roofs and butterfly roofs. Expect spirited debates on whether Le Corbusier would have preferred sous-vide or traditional roasting methods.

5. Signature Cocktail: The “Hollin Highball” – a mix of gin, Chartreuse, and a dash of Bauhaus inspiration. Served in a coupe glass, naturally.

6. Entertainment: Jazz vinyl records spin on the turntable, and occasionally, someone recites poetry by the glow of a Nelson Bubble Lamp.

7. Secret Handshake: It involves a mid-century chair pose and a whispered “Form follows function.”

Remember, membership is by invitation only. To join, you must correctly identify at least three obscure Eichler homes and recite the entire color palette of the Pantone Mid-Century Modern Collection.

So, dust off your vintage cocktail shaker, adjust your Saarinen tie, and let’s celebrate the intersection of architecture, gastronomy, and good company. Cheers to the Hollin Hills Supper Society!
