Club SupSup is a monthly supper club focused on creating unique, Latin-inspired dining experiences in collaboration with local businesses, wineries, and other community spaces and members in SLO County. The events are designed to be accessible to locals and offer intimate, curated culinary experiences in a relaxed setting.

As a host, you’ll provide a unique venue and assist with set-up and basic support throughout the event. Chef Candice and her team will handle food preparation, plating, service, and clean-up, ensuring guests have an unforgettable experience in your space.

Hosts are also asked to assist in promotion of ticket sales.

Each event generally lasts about 3-4 hours. This includes a welcome period, the multi-course meal, and time for guests to mingle and enjoy the ambiance. Dinner events typically start at 6PM.

Chef Candice and her team will typically arrive 2-3 hours before the event begins to set-up, do final food prep, and ensure everything is ready for guests. Hosts should plan to have the space available during this time.

Hosts are asked to provide:

• Adequate space for the guest count, with tables, chairs, and basic dining set-up. Chef Candice will provide cutlery, dinnerware, linens, and glassware as needed.

• Access to any available kitchen facilities or prep spaces if needed for last-minute prep and plating.

• Restrooms for guest use.

• Power outlets and lighting, as needed.

• Access to speakers if available, and wi-fi.

Club SupSup has two models. Some events are BYOB and guests are encouraged to bring their own beverages to share. Other events in collaboration with wine/beer/spirits purveyors/venues will include a pairing as part of the ticket price. In these instances a pre-determined amount of product will be purchased by Chef Candice (with an industry discount) for the event and guests will be invited to purchase additional product at the event. Hosts are encouraged to provide a small discount for these sales.

To encourage an intimate setting events host around 12-16 guests, but each event can be tailored to fit the space and the unique experience.

To encourage conversation and new connections each event is open seating. Hosts will need to provide the space, tables, and chairs for seating. One or two large long tables are encouraged but this layout can be tailored to fit the event and space.

Events feature simple, elegant decor with a focus on creating a warm, welcoming ambiance. If you have special decor in mind, Chef Candice is happy to collaborate and bring that vision to life.

Chef Candice and her team will handle all food-related clean-up and ensure your space is left cleaner than it was found. If you have specific clean-up guidelines, please disclose in advance and best efforts will be made to accommodate. If hosts invite guests to stay beyond the 3-4 hour window, Chef Candice cannot guarantee clean-up of the dining space and the host or collaborator may need to handle final clean-up.

While many hosts provide their space for free, Chef Candice does offer some compensation in the form of a $200 usage fee; or a minimum product purchase; or 10% portion of ticket sales; or two comped seats at the event. To ensure attainable ticket prices for guests, product/service purchases from hosts/collaborators is asked to be provided with an industry discount.
