SCHÖNE HEIMAT – A CULINARY EXPLORATION OF BERLIN & BEYOND

We offer a combination experience of a market tour + cooking class+ lunch, and corporate team building events.

CLASSES HAVE STARTED AGAIN!
Wednesdays and Saturdays, please email for dates.
My husband and I LOVED this experience. You won't find anything else like it.

We met with Kit at the farmers market. She told us all about where the groceries came from, what we might do with them, and what to look out for. Our group then walked to her beautiful apartment to cook up a delicious, seasonal, organic meal. Kit is a fabulous host, engaging, curious, and easy going. If you are looking for a local experience, book a half day with Kit.

THE COOKBOOK

This book is my special take on the regional, seasonal, and contemporary cuisine of Germany. Its focus is on vegetables, herbs, wild edibles, including how we can transform traditional, meat, and dairy heavy recipes into fresher, healthier dishes, refined with foraged edibles and forgotten delicacies. It’s my celebration of our culinary culture of the past and present.

CULINARY TEAM BUILDING EVENTS FOR YOUR COMPANY!

Explore Germany’s Modern German cuisine with your team. This is a great way to enhance your team's competence by building collaboration, communication and camaraderie. Cooking for a group of people naturally asked for this. We create a fun and relaxing environment for your team, that re-energizes and provides a safe place, encouraging them to express themselves authentically. The team building cooking class is offered with the subsequent 4-course dinner for maximum 25 people.

Event can be held in English or German.

CULINARY ART EVENTS - explore culinary culture

If you’re tired of regular dinner parties or team-building events, there are multiple ways to bring meaning to your table and offer an unforgettable culinary experience. Whether table talk dinners, foraged wild food dinners, zero waste kitchen dinners, or speaker dinners, it's about bringing people together to share, converse, engage and enjoy!
I love using good food on a large table to create a space for dialog. Being around and working with artists, authors, scientists, food designers, entrepreneurs and visionaries, lead me to gather people from a spectrum of life – as agile thinkers around a table.
Food is a fascinating subject, which we ought to discuss much more frequently and openly. We consume, eat, garden, harvest, cook, manipulate, breed, kill, poison and destroy. The cycles in agriculture and food production are complicated and sometimes absurd, our botanical inheritance is manipulated. We are witnessing sociological changes and lifestyle diseases from mass industry-manufactured food production and consumption. All this seems to stand in opposition to the growing interest in regional, organic and artisan foods, the urban gardening movement and the preservation of biodiversity.
 
Seeking a deeper understanding of food culture and agriculture in the larger sociological context has prompted me to engage with this existential and very human aspect of life: eating.
