It’s more than just a cooking session — it’s a space where food becomes a bridge. People from different backgrounds, generations, and life experiences come together to chop vegetables, share stories, and start conversations that might not happen anywhere else.

What Happens at Chop & Chat?

Each event starts in the kitchen — we cook together, share ideas, and get to know each other over fresh, regional, and often rescued ingredients. While the pots are simmering, the real magic happens: connection, laughter, and honest conversation.

Why Join?

Because cooking is democratic — everyone can take part. Whether you’re a farmer from Brandenburg, a newcomer to Berlin, or a local neighbor, Chop & Chat invites you to be part of a shared experience that celebrates community and dialogue.

Participation is free and open to everyone. No registration, no pressure — just good food, good company, and a chance to connect. Come chop, chat, and share a meal with us — because the best conversations start in the kitchen. 

Chop & Chat is our new event series organised in collaboration with dabei.sein Kreuzberg and Cooking Practice. The events take place monthly at our partner spaces in Kreuzberg at Nachbarschaftshaus Urbanstraße (NHU), and Mehrgenerationenhaus Gneisenaustraße 12 (MGH). Stay tuned for upcoming dates on our homepage, newsletter and Instagram!
