The “New to New York” Brunch Experience at Gnocco

The Dinner Table Club is hosting a special edition community brunch to celebrate the launch of Faev, a new app helping people find roommates, subleases, and real friends in the city, all with safety, compatibility, and transparency at the core.

About Faev

Launching this July in NYC and LA, Faev is a female-first platform that helps you match with roommates and friends based on lifestyle, values, and vibe. Think: verified profiles, personal dealbreakers (like 420-friendly or LGBTQ+ inclusive), and real compatibility — not just proximity.

We’re welcoming Faev to the city the best way we know how: with a shared table, a good meal, and meaningful conversation.

This event is especially geared toward recent college grads and people navigating post-grad life in NYC, but everyone is welcome: whether you just moved here, have been here a while, or are simply looking to expand your circle.

About Gnocco & Our Brunch Experience

Gnocco in the East Village is a cozy Sunday brunch venue filled with Northern Italian charm and new connections. Known for its rustic garden seating and traditional flavors from Modena, Gnocco serves up handmade pastas, wood-fired Roman-style pizzas, and their signature gnocco fritto — all crafted with premium imported ingredients and Tuscan olive oil.

Guests will gather for a three-course, family-style brunch designed to encourage conversation and community. Between courses, guests will switch seats to meet new people, guided by thoughtful conversation prompts that spark meaningful connection.

Join us Sunday, September 14th from 12–3pm ET for a social brunch experience that feels like Italy, but connects you right here in NYC. 🥂🍳
