Freezing Favela Freedom Food

Celebrate freedom at Mediamatic's temporary city

5 أيار / مايو 2013

Come and taste what the Freezing Favela has to offer. Food from the Favelous chefs Andrea Sossi and Robert Bochove, and mushroom soup and fish from our aquaponics farm. We asked local neighborhood cooks which foods for them symbolize freedom, and they've come up with an exquisitely celebratory menu. The weather promises to be good, so make sure to enjoy a beer on the quay next to the Tostifabriek. Guided tours each hour starting at 13:30. Tickets are €10,- (including a 4-week Club Mediamatic membership) for one dish and a dessert. Get your tickets here.

Favelous restaurant at Ignite Amsterdam 27 - Picture made by Erik Diekstra at Ignite Amsterdam 27. Some of Mediamatic's events are catered by local neighborhood cooks. The cook sets a price for his or her meal, cooks either at home or at our place, and sells the food to our visitors. Depending on how big the event is, we invite one or multiple cooks. All proceeds go the chef.
