i hate dinner parties.But I decided to give them another shot because I'm in london.And my friend mallery invited me.And because dinner parties in london are very different from those back in New York.There." I'm having a dinner party "means:"I am booking a table for 12at a restaurant you can not afford and we will be sharing the cheque evenly,no matter what you eat ."Worse,in manhattan there is always someone who leaves before the bill arrives.They well throw down cash,half of what they own,and then people like me,who do not drink ,end up paying even more .but if I try to us the same trick ,the hostess will shout :" Where are you going "And it is not like I can say I have somewhere to go :everyone knows I have nowhere to go.
But in london ,dinner parties are in people 's homes .Not only that .the guests are an interesting mix .the last time I went to one ,the guests were from France India ,Denmark and Nigeria ; it was like a gathering at the United Nations .in New York ,the mix is less striking .it is like gathering at Bloomingdale 's,a well-known department store,
For New Yorkers,talking about other parts of the world means Brooklyn and queens in New York.But at Mallery 's.when I said that I had been to Myanmar recently .people knew where it was .In New York people would think it was a usual new club.
