“The Community Dining experience affords the opportunity to meet with friends and network with new friends to discuss topics of interest and topics that you did not even realize were of interest. It is a great forum to spread ideas, culture and develop new relationships.”

"I first learned about Community Dinning when I ran into an old friend Paul Sippil from High School in line at Whole Foods. Paul is a passionate food enthusiast whose life mission is to share knowledge of farm to table restaurants and the farms that supply them. To attend one of his events is to gain insight into how food is currently sourced and how it should be soured in the modern era.”

Paul's Community Dining has combined these for a needed dose of education, support and connection. I always meet the most interesting people, inspiring provocative and poignant discussions...
