An intimate dinner exploring how altered states can transform connection, deepen intimacy, and open new possibilities for liberation.
What happens to connection when consciousness shifts?
For our next edition of Off Menu, we’re joined by Logina Mostafa, Director of Community at the Brooklyn Psychedelic Society, for an intimate dinner exploring psychedelics, altered states, and the ways they can transform how we relate to ourselves, each other, and desire.
Together, we’ll explore what can happen when our usual boundaries and ways of seeing begin to loosen. How might altered states change our experience of intimacy and sexuality? Can they deepen our capacity for vulnerability, belonging, and connection? And what might they reveal about the parts of ourselves, and each other, that are harder to access in ordinary consciousness?
With no more than 18 guests, the evening is designed for real access to our featured guest: listening, questioning, challenging ideas, sharing perspectives, and letting the conversation evolve around the table.

Upcoming topics include “The Art of Attraction”, “The Appeal of Surrender”, “Fashion, Skin, and Suggestion”,“Sex Myths We All Believe”, and more.

Off Menu is built for people who find great conversation genuinely attractive.
Each evening begins with a provocative idea introduced by a keynote speaker, setting the tone for thoughtful discussion around attraction, relationships, psychology, and human behavior. The small dinner table format encourages real dialogue rather than surface-level small talk, drawing a room full of curious people who enjoy asking better questions and exploring interesting perspectives.
By the time dinner ends and the evening shifts into cocktails, music, and after-hours socializing, the room is already buzzing with connection.
Off Menu creates a rare environment where ideas, curiosity, and chemistry can unfold in the same room.
