CLEVELAND, Ohio - The Music Box Supper Club is having a very-Cleveland dinner party. Several of them, actually.

The Flats west bank club is partnering with the Cleveland History Center for a new weekly dinner series that will combine food with storytelling.

The Cleveland Stories Dinner Party will take place every Wednesday at the club beginning Feb. 17. The goal is to bring to life some of the fun, interesting stories about Cleveland's past - from sports, to rock 'n roll, to Millionaire's Row. Each week will feature a different speaker.

The series begins with Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum CEO Greg Harris on Feb. 17 on "Backstage Shenanigans at the Induction Ceremony - Yes, It Is All Sex, Drugs and Rock & Roll." The three-course meal includes shroom soup, pot roast, and cosmic brownie Sunday.

Other evenings include:

Feb. 24- Cleveland historian Dan Ruminski reveals the secrets of "The Vixens of Millionaire's Row, the Rich Men and Their Wild Women." Dinner includes a gold beet salad, black pearl pork chop, and a Rockefeller cooler.

March 2 - Sports writer Dan Coughlin divulges the secrets of the clubhouse in his story "Pass the Nuts, Clubhouse Stories you won't Believe." Popcorn bisque, a kielbasa polish boy and fries, and a banana split will be the featured three-course dinner for the evening.

Dinner is $20 each week. The talk is free to attend. Reservations are encouraged for dinner by calling the Music Box at 216-242-1250. Dinner will begin at 6 p.m., and the storytelling will start at 7:30 p.m.
