Meeting new people in this day and age may seem like an easy thing to do but in reality, it is just more intimidating and confusing.  Most online websites only help you connect and network virtually... that is not truly making new friends.  Other groups around Columbus offer lots of business education and networking or perhaps a place to meet singles.  Again, not the ideal place to simply kick-back in a casual environment. This is where Dimensional Entertainment come in.  We take the online com …

This Meetup was started to mutually benefit people and local independent restaurants. Everyone eats so it’s a great way to be social and make friends. We support our local restaurants and vendors by never booking at chains. We usually select the slowest night (TWT) for the restaurant and it works for us all. A ‘win-win’. Everyone is welcome! “Pull up a chair. Take a taste. Come join us. Life is so endlessly delicious.” ~ Ruth Reichl
