Running Dinner

Hello everyone!

How does sharing an evening full of international food, and smiles while meeting new people sound? If that sounds good for you, get ready for the ESN Running Dinner!

WHEN?
Wednesday, 3rd of December, 2025

WHAT IS IT?
Imagine a unique culinary journey divided into three fantastic courses, each at a new and different location! You and your cooking partner will be responsible for preparing one course of a three-course meal, for the other two courses, you will travel to the homes of other teams to dine.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
Each pair of participants will host two other pairs for one course of the dinner.
As hosts, you will prepare either the appetizer, main course, or dessert, for yourselves and other 2 couples (6 people in total)
After the time slot for your course, you'll "run" to another location to meet two different pairs for the next step of the dinner.

The Schedule
Aperitif: 19:00 - 20:00
Main Course: 20:30 - 22:30
Dessert: 23:00 - 23:45
→ You'll have a 30-minute window between each course to travel to your next destination.

FRIENDLY REMINDER
Hosts: Always provide food and drinks for your guests.
Guests: It’s customary to bring a bottle of wine or a small gift for your hosts!
And the Best Part? The Grand Finale!
After your last delicious bite, we'll all meet at 23:45 at the Piazza Dei Signori stairs to conclude the night together!
