We’re Changing Things Up in 2026

Hi, I'm Heather!
I moved from Milwaukee, Wisconsin to Charlotte, North Carolina in 2018. I was 25 years old, newly single, and as an adult, I had no idea how to make new friends. After some time (and trying everything) I found my community, but I wished there was an easier way to meet like-minded people in an intimate setting.
That's when I thought of DishCourse. My goal is to grow the social wealth of everyone in Charlotte by inviting you to join us at a table of 6 strangers for dinner, brunch, or drinks.
How DishCourse Works
We host dinner parties for strangers. DishCourse offers a wide selection of events, all based on common threads. Each event is professionally hosted, so you are guided through the experience from start to finish. Ready to join us at the table?
Here's how it works.
