Cooking and eating together is not only about exchanging culinary skills, but also about cultural exchange! It creates a sense of community and connection, which is especially important for newcomers who are in a new environment. Cooking together allows people to share stories, laugh and enjoy each other’s company.

The World Kitchen cooking evenings that we organize together with Buurtbel Wittevrouwen have a special meaning for residents of azc Star Lodge. The newcomers who live here cannot cook for themselves, so for them cooking and eating together is extra fun! These evenings are full of encounters and nice conversations. This time it was a varied meal from Turkish and Syrian cuisine.
