What does The Dinner Table Club connector do?
The Dinner Table Club connector lets an AI assistant look up upcoming dinners in New York, DC, Los Angeles and Miami by city and date. For each dinner it returns the restaurant, neighborhood, local date and time, price per person with dinner included, whether seats are left, and a link to the event page. It can also pull up one dinner's menu and answer common questions, like coming solo or dietary needs. It is free, read-only and needs no sign-in.
