language dinners

In Japanese, they say 'itadakimasu!' In Italy, they say 'mangiamo!' In English, we say 'let's eat!'

The Young Professionals' popular Language Dinner groups meet with the explicit purpose of eating delicious food spiced with good conversation in the local language.

Whether you just returned from abroad and are looking to keep the rust off your language skills, or you simply enjoy a good meal and conversation, pull up a plate at one of our many language dinners.
