Food as part of a modern lifestyle: the anniversary edition of Berlin Food Week will once again show how enjoyment and sustainability can be combined.
In addition to various events, restaurant specials and workshops, networking events and a conference are also planned for the Food Week in October. In terms of content, the theme weeks will focus on regional and international cuisine, nutritional awareness and enjoyment, sustainability and consumption.
The highlight for many foodies is undoubtedly the House of Food in the Bikini. This is where local manufacturers, international brands, regional producers and innovative start-ups present their new products. There is a particular focus on sustainable, organic and vegetarian/vegan products. The House of Food is not just a tasting and shopping event: visitors are invited to talk to exhibitors and other foodies. Admission to the House of Food is free.
Under the motto Pop-Kultur meets Currywurst, iconic dishes and drinks such as currywurst, pancakes, beer, braised cucumber, Black Forest gateau, steak frites, Tournedos Rossini and others will be reinterpreted by well-known star chefs at the pop-up restaurant Food Clash Canteen.
At the decentralized happening French Affair, wine stores and wine bars celebrate the favorite moment of the day: the aperitif. Sustainable Côtes du Rhône wines are offered throughout the capital and matching, specially created French snacks are served.
Due to the great success of the last two years, the Gönn dir Gastro campaign continues in cooperation with the Senate. The aim of the campaign is to get the younger generation interested in a job in the catering industry and to promote the image of the sector.
The focus is on hands-on experience: a specially curated and organized programme invites interested parties to get a taste of the job. Up to 35 workshops are planned in just as many companies.
The organizers want the program to appeal to people who appreciate good food as well as chefs, restaurateurs, hoteliers, institutions, journalists, foodies and bloggers. Berlin Food Week sees itself as an open-source platform whose vision is to turn the lifestyle metropolis of Berlin into an international food metropolis in the long term.
