What is ALMA Secret Supper Club?
A project by ALMA hospitality, ALMA Secret Supper Club is a roaming supper club that curates immersive dining experiences across MENA, connecting people, cuisine, and heritage. Each event is hosted in a secret venue, revealed 48 hours before the dinner, featuring an emerging chef, and a curated group of 20-25 guests.
Come for an escape or for the friends, and business partners you didn’t know you needed.
How do I join ALMA as a guest?
Extremely simple. Join the waitlist of the Experience(s) that call your name. Our team will get in touch to give you access and confirm your seat.
If you were referred by one of our regulars, that's another lovely way in.
How are locations chosen?
We pick a brand new location every month so you always have a fresh spot to look forward to!
We love exploring places that are yet to open or choosing historic, charming locations for their cultural or biblical roots. The whole idea is to take the location's story, including its people, traditions, and geography, and translate it into a gastronomic experience just for you.
If you are a heritage keeper, we would be honored to tell the story of your venue through cuisine and honor its legacy.
