How do I invite people to a party at a restaurant but make it clear they need to pay for their own meals?
How about, “Bring your wallet, ’cause I’m stingy!” You really can’t do this without being Rude. Look at it this way: when you host a party at Your Home, you don’t expect Your Guests to Fork Over Cash to cover the cost of the food and drinks they’ve had, do you? (We certainly hope not.) Well, if you’re throwing a party for someone in a Restaurant, you need to Foot the Bill there, too. The ENTIRE Bill. If that’s too costly, something we can certainly understand, consider throwing a different type of party where you can actually treat everyone– maybe there’s a less expensive restaurant, maybe you can have a lunch instead of a dinner, maybe you can tighten up the Guest List, maybe you can have it Chez Toi.
