It is not exactly what I want to do because I want to have options for vegans and starter, main and after/dessert dish culminating below $4 for a person as investments thinking about 15-20 people being around to eat.

I actually can't think of any term that means that in English. It's
definitely not "potluck dinner", and I think the Chinese "hot pot"
meal is not what you mean either.

What phrase are you trying to translate from your native language?

I think it's an awesome idea and you should totally do it, regardless
of what we call it. ;-)

Also I think that $4 per is if anything a bit low. I expect even
reasonably meals in SF to cost ~$7-8.
