ABOUT THE DINNER PARTY PROJECT: With humble beginnings, The Dinner Party Project (TDPP) started simply as a gathering of friends, new and old, in Founder Dana Marie Roquemore’s home. Through word-of mouth and social media, The Dinner Party Project has quickly become a favorite way for Orlandoans to connect, in welcoming settings complete with local food and great conversation. While the TDPP brand has grown, each dinner maintains its original intimacy and character—with only eight guests who are randomly selected to attend. TDPP also engages the community at large dinners that gather the masses. They are a way to enjoy the incredible food & arts scene we have in Orlando, and a great way to meet new people.
