📌 Note: To keep things easy and enjoyable for all, we’re keeping this a pet-free evening.
Not every gathering needs to happen on the main road.
Sometimes the richest conversations unfold a little off-course—over shared plates, easy laughter, and the kinds of questions that rarely make it into meeting rooms.
This Sidequest Dinner brings us to Green Cheek Beer Co. for an intimate evening with the NOA community, thoughtfully hosted in partnership with our friend Scout, CEO of FlavorHawk. Together, we’ll enjoy a relaxed, off-the-record evening where curiosity takes the lead.
As part of the evening, Scout invites the guests to explore FeedMe, FlavorHawk’s pre-beta app that reimagines the restaurant menu through short-form video and personalized dish discovery (think Spotify for food, with TikTok-style UGC visuals). iOS users will be able to register early and, in exchange for a quick 10-second video of your dish, FlavorHawk will cover your dish. This is a gesture in return for helping bring this idea to life. Along the way, we will enjoy NOA-style conversation in OC!
Expect a playful, seasonal spread paired with Green Cheek’s signature pours, and the kind of table where intros turn into insights.
Whether you're building, pausing, or simply looking for perspective, this is a moment to step off the main road—and discover what’s possible when you do.
