Mediamatic Eetclub: swap gifts over lunch

Prepare a 3-course aquaponics lunch with chef Andrea

30 Dec 2012

Forget the cold, wet weather and join us in our sustainable urban aquaponics farm. We've been growing loads of veggies and fish, and finally it was time to harvest. Celebrate the launch of the Mediamatic Eetclub with us. During our first meal together we enjoyed our homegrown oyster mushrooms. Chef Andrea helped us prepare comforting bruschetta, sassy soup, and heartwarming risotto. In between chopping mushrooms and grating cheese you could swap your unwanted christmas presents, so make sure to bring those along.
