If you love food, step this way...

Do you love going out to eat? If you know your Dishooms from your Modern Pantrys then why not try something different and abandon the big name restaurants to take up residence at someone’s house for one night only.

Some brave and incredible amateur and professional chefs are inviting you into their homes or basements – not as creepy as it sounds, we promise - to test their cooking. While you may have to swap a big, fancy seat at the Michelin starred restaurant for a communal table, you'll eat some delicious, homemade food in the company of like-minded people.

Supper clubs are big news and this autumn there are some amazing options to pick from, so we thought we'd give you the rundown of the hottest meal tickets in town:

The Wendy’s House Supper Club naturally takes place in chef Wendy’s home in Manchester. Seating only eight, Wendy cooks up an all-vegetarian seasonal menu and presents it herself to the table.

As a bonus, if you’ve got a celebration then crack out the party poppers and let Wendy know so she can bake you up a vegan and gluten free cake for the occasion. Perfect.
