Dinner

Before hanging up the phone, Megan told Kelly and Carrie she loved them and would see them in just a few hours.

That night, Dinner went by and Megan never showed up.

So Kelly called Megan several times, but the calls went straight to voicemail.

Now at this point, Kelly figured Megan got busy with the patient and then she probably just went back to her apartment that she shared with Chris.

Wow.

Mid-dinner.

And yeah, he wasn't so happy, Jose.

Steve-O apologized.

And I'm like, "What do you mean one and a half?" And he went, "I'm a pretty busy guy."

[laughs] This is Dinner's On Me, and I'm your host, Jesse Tyler Ferguson.

[upbeat music] Today I'm at Chifa in Eagle Rock, a Peruvian Chinese restaurant celebrating the cuisine born when Chinese immigrants brought their culinary traditions to Peru.

Brother and sister Humberto and Rika Leon opened Chifa as a love letter to their family.

And we're back with more Dinners on Me.

Remember when we were all together at the DNC?

Instead of just from the playlist.

And then that's kind of one of our goals for this year is we are seeking other amazing experience dinners out so that we can get some new ideas.

So like in July...

Yeah, in July,

And then there's another series called Outstanding in the Field.

Yes.

And they go, it seems like all over the world, and they host these pop-up dinners.

And so we're waiting for them to release their 2026 dates.

Who did Jimmy Snuggerud live with when he first came to St. Louis? It was Braden Shen.

And he had Sidney Crosby come over for Denver.

I mean, little things like that.

Does Robert Thomas, does he have to be that guy? I mean, is that necessary? I mean, you talk about being yourself.

Think about a night when your kids don't have anything going on.

They get off the bus, you need to make dinner, but whether you eat at 515, 545 probably doesn't matter very much.

Now compare that to the night when somebody has gymnastics at 5.30, but still arrives at the same time.

Suddenly dinner isn't just dinner.

Dinner has to be ready by a certain time because she has to eat.

She needs to change.

Now we're going to start doing the same for you.

Once you've identified the pressure point and what's going to make it harder, ask yourself where I can create flexibility around that.

I've seen special events.

In fact, actually I w- I'll tell you one that I went to recently that was awesome, Dinner on the Court.

We are here in San Francisco and they actually rented out the Chase Center.

I guess you don't have to rent it out when you are Chase and it's the Chase Center.

And you get so much value out of it if you're a big foodie.

Can I redact my answer? When you said, "Would you pay a $795 annual fee for the Chase Sapphire Reserve even if you don't travel?" And I said, "Well, just what is the dining credit?" But I was not even thinking about these at the time.

And I think about, like, the Dinner on the Court that I went to.

I honestly think people would've paid $795 to go to this event if you were enough of a Warriors fan and it's just this one-of-a-kind experience.

Your teeth are the only part of your skeleton that you claim.

Being a real grown-up isn't cooking a fancy dinner.

It's having a clean kitchen when you go to bed after cooking a fancy dinner.
