There are few things harder than making new friends as an adult. Without mind-numbing uni tutes or wild foam parties to bond over, striking up conversation with new people IRL can feel pretty damn awkward. But nothing breaks the ice better than sharing a plate of pasta and a few cocktails with strangers.
So in the spirit of chasing more fresh connections in 2025, we’ve teamed up with Listerine and their Total Care mouthwash—your best wingman for making new mates with confidence—to throw a series of intimate dinners across Sydney and Melbourne. The best part? We've asked Sophie McIntyre, founder of the chic dinner party series Club Sup, to do it with us.
