Our Solidarity Dinners are a perfect illustration of our goals.
AND they are a fun time! So we look forward to seeing you there!
Conviviality is in the Comité Tricolore’s DNA!

Coming Together for our Festive Dinners

Coming Together in solidarity of the restaurants that we all want to support so that they would still be here at the end of the pandemic.
Coming Together of the Chefs who have prepared special menus at a special price so that we can add a donation to the price of the meal in support of our charitable work.
And last but not least, Coming Together as Friends of the Comité Tricolore to have a place to meet and get to know each other.
The Festive Dinners organized by the CT have been so successful that we are going to continue organizing them on a regular basis.
Our next dinner is May 24th at Et Voilà
Get tempted by the great menu and reserve a seat at the table on EventBrite.
Participation in the dinners is a great way to get to better acquainted with the DC area restaurant scene and its great Chefs.
The price of the ticket includes the price of the meal specially created for us plus a donation to the CT which goes entirely to one of our beneficiaries and is tax deductible.
Each month we have witnessed how these dinners allow Friends of the CT to Come Together and share common interests while meeting each other and personalities of the French-American diplomatic and social scene.
Meet the Chef !
