2023 | DINNER 1 – TABOOSTIFY YOURSELF.

the first taboo dinner took place where everything started: in cologne, germany. in the most marvellous room, witchlandia, surrounded by crystal and great atmosphere. this dinner aimed to gather almost-like stranger people around a table to exchange about taboos, in general.

what is taboo? why do we have taboo? what is their purpose? In which manifestations can taboos be found? What is considered taboo, that you don’t think should be? What could be the disadvantages of taboos? what is your biggest taboo?

the menu. 4 courses.
tickle
the idea behind it is to start with a big, unpredictable, disturbing question
warming bit

crunchy spicy juicy
t
hen ask more crunchy questions
sweet talk
and have a softer finishing touch
what strikes us the most is the profound exchange among individuals who, despite their varying backgrounds in age, nationality, culture, and language, engaged deeply on taboo topics. surprisingly, those who seemed reserved were often the most articulate in expressing their thoughts. the most refreshing aspect of this dinner was that participants delved into diverse "unspeakable" themes without prior knowledge of each other's life paths or occupations.

2024 | DINNER 4 – A FEAST FOR THE AGES.

Aging is a journey we all share, yet it often remains shrouded in stigma and silence. Inspired by a conversation with someone twice our age, we delved into the evolution of the body, perceptions, and generational dynamics. This dinner was designed to spark a meaningful exploration of aging through the lenses of food, conversation, and shared experience.

2024 | DINNER 5 – NOURISHMENT FOR THE MIND

Mental health touches all of us, yet it often hides in the shadows, wrapped in stigma or discomfort. For this Dinner, we wanted to change that. Inspired by conversations within our community, we crafted an evening that brought mental health to the table—literally and figuratively. It was a space to reflect, connect, and explore the complexities of our minds together.

2023 | DINNER 2 – HARD TO DIGEST.

we hosted this second culinary experience within the und.wieder gallery that we have redecorated for the occasion. The topic was kinda hard to digest. Our aim with “digest” was to talk, eat and bring awareness around the topic of Irritable Bowel Syndrome like the Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitisa. A topic close to our heart and gut, touching people in our close surrounding and beyond.

2024 | DINNER 6 – TO BE SUSTAINABLY GROUNDED.

The environment is everywhere—woven into the fabric of our lives and yet so often avoided in deeper conversations. For this dinner, we chose to explore the Earth with intimacy and curiosity, creating a space where guests could reflect on their role in its future. In a world filled with noise, we wanted to bring the focus back to the quiet urgency of our planet’s story.

2023 | DINNER 3 – SEX. SELF.

sex. what a broad topics. their is the personal part of sex, sexualities, the “bad” part of sex… focus on such a topic is much required. hence, as a first facette of this topic, we chose to focus on the “sex, self” part. our own relation with sex as a practice, as an instrument, as a relation.
