I was recently introduced to Colunching through my friend Lindsey, and happily accepted the invitation to host the first Philadelphia event (merci Bryan)! It is a great concept, bringing people together to socialize and network over lunch, brunch or dinner. The idea that was born in Paris last year has made it's way to cities around the world and has finally arrived in the states. It's simple (and free)…create a profile on the site, choose the place, date and time, and spread the news…anyone can host! I chose Talula's Garden, a fairly new restaurant with fantastic buzz, and was eager to share the experience. It was a lovely setting, with an amazing local, organic menu and a large community table overlooking the dining room. It was an evening of laughter and great conversation, and I'm already looking forward to the next one. So…what are you waiting for? Sign up and "feed your network"…I love that line.
What a way to spend a Wednesday night. Familiar faces, new faces, candlelight, wine and amazing food from Talulah’s Garden. I was happy to be a part of Philadelphia’s first CoLunching and looking forward to the next one! Cheers!
Oh GOD how much I would have loved to be there… you have no idea!! So glad Philly’s first Codining was a huge success, I knew it would be!!
Love this idea Suz…and love all the cool eye glasses.
Hugs
This looks delightful…I hope you all are willing to do one when I’m in town this holiday season!!!
So happy you were part of it Kerri, thank you!
I wish you could have been…next time you are in town! I would love to attend one in Paris! ;)
You could get this going in Charlotte Amy…it’s a lot of fun! Glasses are the best accessories ;)
Of course Bryan, we must! :)
Ha Ha! I must have been blushing, or laughing. This was a great time- & the food was delicious (I knew it would be amazing!). Thanks for being a gracious host! I bet it made you feel closer to Paris…
What a cool idea–yay for new friends!
Oh Susan this is so wonderful! Now I want to try my hand at having one in Toronto when I get back!

Oh you should Samantha…maybe I can connect you with Bryan in Paris…;)
How fun! Talulah’s Garden is on my list of restaurants to check out.
Good luck on your new venture and announcement tomorrow! I’m excited to see what you’re going to do :)
