Dinner parties are still highly popular, and I believe they always will be.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I just don't get invited to the same dinner parties I used to like to go to.
I always liked parties. You meet people; you can have fun.
Every party is the same, too many people, too little food, and you have to wait around. I'm extremely bored with parties.

You can imagine the kind of dinner parties I had to go to at a young age... pretty dull.
I always like to think I'm having a dinner party, and I'm the host, and the audience are my guests.
Actually, I don't even like parties. I would much prefer a room with four friends who sit around and have dinner. I detest nightclubs. And I don't like places where the noise is so loud you can't talk to people.
I think fine dining is dying out everywhere... but I think there will be - and there has to always be - room for at least a small number of really fine, old-school fine-dining restaurants.
I consider a good dinner party at our house to be where people drink and eat more than they're meant to. My husband is a really fantastic cook. His mother is Italian and if you walk into our house, we assume you're starving.
Somewhere in the back of their minds, hosts and guests alike know that the dinner party is a source of untold irritation, and that even the dullest evening spent watching television is preferable.
