Atlanta's 'Media Maven' Mara Davis shares fun ideas for hosting or dining for Friendsgiving
Community can look different for many people. It doesn’t always have to be blood-related; it can be chosen. Around the holidays, a popular trend among friend groups is “Friendsgiving.” And in this interview, the Diva of Delicious, Mara Davis, joined “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes to talk about some fun ways to host or dine out for Friendsgiving. Her suggestions are listed below!
The EWE Supper Club is a community like no other in the Metro Atlanta area. As a member, you’ll get to brush shoulders and share appetizers with culinary connoisseurs, entrepreneurs, influencers, business owners and others who are looking to be the “host with the most.”
You’ll get to know others in the community who share a love for cuisine, hospitality, entertaining and dining in a creative and delectable atmosphere. Erica guarantees that you will walk away from Supper Club with a satiated palette and a slew of new connections.
