Cooking — a hosted LMTW get-together in real life

What cooking looks like at LMTW

We run it as Cooking — small hosted get-togethers where the activity does the icebreaking. You tell the club your city, generation and interests; a matching engine shortlists your crew and a human reviews every new group before invites go out.

A trained Captain hosts: they arrive first, do the introductions, and keep the energy up — you just show up. The venue is voted on by the crew and revealed 24 hours before, because a little suspense is good for everyone.

Common questions

Do I need experience with cooking?

None. Get-togethers are social first — beginners are genuinely welcome, and the host makes sure nobody’s left out of the loop.

What does it cost?

Your first get-together is free for founding members. After that, a seat is 12 credits — about $6 from a $25 pack of 50 — and credits never expire. You pay venues directly for whatever you order.

Can I come alone?

Yes — coming alone is the design, not the risk. Everyone at the table arrived not knowing anyone, and the host handles introductions.
