From the kitchen team
The true taste is in nature, and food is more than just filling the stomach. We at Bard College Berlin engage with these questions. It starts already with shopping for groceries. Choosing fresh, seasonal, and organic produce of high quality is of primary importance. In addition, we believe in treating fresh produce respectfully so that the natural variety of tastes and nutrients are preserved during the cooking. Good thinking and planning but also a lot of 'joie de vivre' is part of the preparation of every dish, every day.
—Bon appétit!
