First, let's nail down the basics. A mystery dinner's bare bones are the following:. The menu is known only to the hostess/host. You, the host or hostess, are the only one who knows what is on the menu. The menu's items are mysterious. Your menu's items should have obscure names. The names might have some relation to what the dish actually is, but the idea is to confuse the guest.
Here's an example: You might call pancakes 'potholders'!. Everything's delicious! Your food, of course, should be delicious. Try not to select anything that will repulse your guests. You most certainly want them to enjoy themselves.A variant is to have the 'mystery' part of your dinner be to guess the theme. A prize could be given for the first one to guess it correctly.
Giving your dinner a theme is fairly easy. Are your guests big readers? Then how about a literary-themed dinner? Each food item served might be a book title, or each food item's name (or part of it) might be in the book's title. For example, you could serve grapes on your menu and call them 'Seeds of Wrath.' Once the guests name the theme, then they may have to guess the author.
How much more fun could this get? Have them guess the genre. Prizes for the winners! They don’t have to be expensive prizes. Having a lovely centerpiece could be the prize for that table.

Maybe a gift card to Barnes and Noble. I didn't write a menu, I gave Deanne an idea. As far as Christmas themed menu. You choose the type of food you want then name it to fit. I'm not sure what types of food you want to use. For instance if you wanted to serve 'porcupine balls' (meatballs with rice) I would call them 'Dirty Snowball' - Chocolate covered raisins could be 'Reindeer Poop'.
Stuffed mushrooms - (baby Portabellas) could be called 'Full Mangers'.You just take the food - then think of an association with the name of the food - then create a new name for it. Above all - have fun with it. Thanksgiving mystery dinner? Hmm, sounds like fun, what are you planning on serving?
I would go on the 'turkey' theme but not necessarily the regular roasted Turkey, maybe some turkey sliders and call them 'slippery fowl'? Maybe the stuffing might have a name like 'sage advice'.
Cranberry sauce might be 'water logged'. (cranberries are grown near water - if they sink they are no good) The invitation Hmm, I might think of a theme and decide from there or you can just tell your invitees that they are invited to a mystery dinner!!Best wishes and I'm sure no matter what you decide I'm sure it will be great!!.
