October 20: Mushroom tasting workshop
Discover and taste mushrooms you might never have tasted before. Natascha Rothengatter, most well-known for running Portabella at the Noordermarkt in Amsterdam, will tell us everything about the different mushroom species, how to prepare them and what kind of dishes you can make with them. A cozy evening in with great nibbles and a glass of wine. Find out more here.
