Food is more than nourishment—it is memory, identity, and a bridge between cultures.

Join us for an engaging talk by Vibeke Knöchel Christensen as we embark on a fascinating journey across Northern Europe, the Arab world, and France, exploring how culinary traditions connect cultures in surprising and delightful ways.

Discover:
🥖 The shared heritage behind simple staples like flatbreads
🍬 Festive treats such as Danish æbleskiver, French crêpes, and Arab luqaimat
🥘 How creative leftover dishes—biksemad, fatteh, pain perdu—tell stories of resourcefulness and tradition

This session is more than a conversation about food; it’s an invitation to see how flavors and techniques travel, adapt, and unite cultures across borders and centuries. Expect to leave with a new perspective—and a deeper appetite for cultural connections.

Prepare to travel through culinary traditions from Northern Europe to the Middle East… without leaving Khobar!
