Ive had too many disappointing meals and paid too much money for them! At one point, fed up with my complaint, a friend suggested I open my own restaurant. Impossible, I thought. But then I heard about supper clubs.”Supper clubs are a mixture of a restaurant and a dinner party you go to a strangers house and he/she cooks dinner for you. Like a restaurant, you pay for your food, but like a dinner party, you eat at the same table as other people. They are advertised through social-networking sites with a menu and little information about where the supper club is until just before the meal.“Its like running a secret restaurant for one night,” says Cassie. “The next morning, I set the tables and chairs aside. I put the TV back and its my living room again.”Cassie opens her “restaurant” for people about once a month, and she really enjoys the evenings shes had so far. She uses fresh, local ingredients and a typical meal costs about the same as a takeaway much less than a restaurant meal. So how does she make money out of it?“I dont,” says Cassie. “In fact, at first I was worried about losing money on my club. Im good at cooking but my maths is terrible! But I was surprised by how cheaply I could make a good meal. This isnt about money. Its about a different eating experience.”And what about inviting complete strangers into her house? Was Cassie ever nervous about that?“Not at all,” she says. “Almost everyone at the supper club is just interested in having a good meal with other interesting people.”24. Why did Cassie decide to open her own restaurant finally?A. To earn a living. B. To satisfy her friends needs.C. To make friends with strangers. D. To cook cheap and good meals for others.25.
