A shared-purchase dinner registry

Dinner is
a group
project.

One host shapes the meal. Everyone chooses a part. The whole table arrives together—without the spreadsheet, the payment chase, or the guesswork.

How it moves

One plan.
Many hands.

The host directs the table. Guests don’t send money into a void—they choose a real part of the meal and take it all the way to ordered.
01

Name the gathering

Choose the date, table size, food style, and where everything should arrive.

02

Build the meal

Add exact dishes, serving amounts, and approved restaurants or grocers to a shared registry.

03

Give everyone a part

Guests claim a dish and pay for their portion through the dinner link—without a group-chat spreadsheet.

04

Gather at one table

Orders stay attached to the dinner so the host can see what is covered before anyone arrives.

The dinner registry

A menu with
accountability.

Choose the food, the quantity, and where it comes from. Guests see what the table still needs, claim a part, and handle their own checkout.

Built for real communities

Use it once.
Or make it a ritual.

mbio Meals works for one gathering on its own. It also has roots in the long-running Family Dinner tradition: people choosing to show up for one another, one table at a time.

Everyone has a part
