Cannabis dinner parties and fine dining aren’t new. For years, highly-trained chefs have been holding invitation-only weed dinner parties and fine dining experiences in secretive locations. And Weed Edibles are more popular than ever.

The chefs that create your dining experience at these events are usually well-educated and/or well-trained.

Is it legal?

Currently, there are no provisions in most of these state regulations that permit dinners that serve cannabis-infused foods, so supper clubs have remained in a grey area. Adults can share cannabis products amongst themselves, and chefs can charge for the food and service they provide. But, no one is technically allowed to sell weed-infused food that hasn’t been produced in a licensed manufacturing facility and passed rigorous lab tests for THC dosage.

Because of that, all of the cannabis dining events in this article has considered to be within the bounds of private events. Chefs who infuse foods tend to go light on the THC dosage. However, in most of these events, you are allowed to smoke weed. You can also expect to sign a waiver protecting the hosts from lawsuits just in case you get too high from the infused dishes.

These events are usually not advertised, people that join the events are usually referred by a friend who’s already a member of the supper club. So, if you just pick up the phone to try to make a reservation for tonight, you can expect a reaction like Patrick Bateman trying to make a dinner reservation at Dorsia’s.
