AllegroTrans Dec 5, 2018:
Asker Tony has a valid point. There are two possible meanings here: series of actual dinners, or series of dinner-related events. I don't think we can make assumptions and I think you need to ask your client.
Ninon Dion (asker) Dec 4, 2018:
I cannot give more details unfortunately, as I do not have more... it is just a list of cuisines (American bistro, Canadian, Italian modern, etc.), and then this, Dinner series... thanks.
Tony M Dec 4, 2018:
@ Asker: Context? I think we need more context here to know what such a "series" might entail; I have some doubts that it is just "a series of dinners"; I would suspect it possibly means a series of events centred around a dinner (like a dinner-dance or a dinner-cabaret, etc.)
Odette Grille (X) Dec 4, 2018:
Beware In Québec, "dîner" is lunch. Dinner is "souper".

série de dîner(s)

Found a bilingual website...hope this helps. I would put an "s" on "diner" to make it plural, though.

Note from asker:
Unfortunately, the link you provided doesn't really apply for the context, nor is "série de dîner/souper".

ribambelle de dîners

Proposition : "Une semaine exceptionnelle ! Ponctuée par des échanges intenses entre les chefs des îles et les chefs étoilés et une *ribambelle de dîners* d’exception ! Le Festival Culinaire Bernard Loiseau, qui a sacré le binôme Michel Husser/Kritesh Halkory, a tenu toutes ses promesses à Constance Belle Mare Plage, dans l’Est de l’île Maurice.

A noter qu'au canada, le dîner est en France le déjeuner.

Cette proposition est faite, sans plus de contexte concernant la phrase/Paragraphe contenant "Dinner Series" ?

Dîner : Au Québec la signification du mot diner n'est pas le dernier repas de la journée. Il s'agit en fait du déjeuner (repas que l'on mange à midi). Au passage, au Québec, le premier repas de la journée le matin est le déjeuner (appelé petit-déjeuner en France), le repas de midi est donc le diner (le déjeuner en français de France) et le dernier repas du soir est le souper (appelé le diner en français de France)..
As I mentioned above.
