Monthly Suitcase Economy Brunch #1

Monthly Suitcase Economy Brunch is a testing ground for experimenting with relation, translation, economic models and time through the preparation and serving of food. Every brunch is prepared with ingredients moved from one place to another via suitcases*, that informed a history of food bartering. The lifespan of these produce is often extended through a fermentation or preservation process.

The Menu:

· Fish or Mushroom Kimchi Burger, served with Korean fermented and preserved sides

Price:

· 10 euro, or 5 euro (drinks not included) if you exchange either a homemade fermented or preserved product, harvested produce from your own garden, or a specific ingredient for cultural dishes

Time:

11.00-15.00 or until we run out

Location:

Suitcase Economy / Ground Floor, Kunstinstituut Melly, Witte de Withstraat 50, Rotterdam
