SP DINE-INS

Feeling hungry? Want to make friends? Want to learn about making healthier meals? If you’ve answered “yes” to any of those questions, the SP Dine-Ins program is for you!

Starting in April 2018, SP Dine-Ins will subsidize shared meals for SP residents with the aim of encouraging regular group cooking. Our goals? To get residents cooking healthy meals in social settings that improve their overall wellness.



How does it work?

Participation in SP Dine-Ins requires four simple steps:

1. Go grocery shopping and keep your itemized receipt/proof of payments*
2. Cook the food (by yourself or with others - don’t forget to take a picture!)
3. Eat with the other SP residents (don’t forget to take a picture!)
4. Send pictures to sp-dine-in@mit.edu and a list of residents who participated

(For more information about what constitutes a proof of payment and how to submit a reimbursement request you can refer to this document)

Participation Rules
¥ Each dine-in group should have 3-8 residents
¥ Non-SP residents may join the meal but they will not count towards the minimum number of participants and will not qualify for any reimbursement
¥ Up to $7.50 per SP resident will be reimbursed for cooking ingredients
¥ Any resident can only participate in the program once per calendar month 
¥ You must submit proof that you cooked in SP and that you ate together with the number of residents you are claiming in the reimbursement request (sending pics to sp-dine-in@mit.edu will suffice for this)
¥ No alcohol can be reimbursed 

What should we cook?

You can find some healthy and interesting recipes here and here. Still stuck on planning a great meal? Feel free to reach out to us for suggestions at sp-dine-in@mit.edu.

How can I find a group?

There are lots of options here! For starters, you can ask your friends, your roommate, or your neighbors. If you’d rather meet new people, feel free to indicate your interest and contact information on this google spreadsheet.

Anything else?

Enjoy!
