The Knife & Fork Club of Houston is a social club that meets six times a year for dinner, guest speakers, humor, current events and educational topics.

We trace our origin to “The Order of the Good Time” founded in North America by Samuel de Champlain and his merchant adventurer friends in 1606 at Port Royal Habitation in Nova Scotia.

Our current membership includes variety of professionals from the Houston area such as space explorers from NASA, geologists, physicians, realtors, attorneys and a few judges to keep an eye on the lawyers.

Although we are an eclectic group, we adhere to the objectives of our founders, one of which was to engage in illuminating discussion at a good dinner with our friends. We are frequently stimulated by good speakers who are warned that they should expect challenge from our opinionated and articulate members.

Our black tie dinners are held at the Lakeside Country Club. Members pay an annual fee of $100.00 (one hundred dollars) to cover operating expenses and speakers' fees, and members pay for food and drink only when attending the meeting.
