On December 4, our tight-knit community around Basel gathered to celebrate together our pan-religious Futuress Hannukkah—Day of Iansã—Xmas—End of the Year meal. The dinner honored our different cultures and culinary genealogies, with a broad array of dishes originating from the Brazilian coast, through the islands of Trinidad and Tobago, enriched with the flavors of the Ashkenazi diaspora, and topped off with Western Asian relish, and scrumptious delicacies akin to the palate of Japanese food stalls. Thank you to everyone who joined and shared these beautiful moments of being together in real life (IRL)—away from our usual barriers of screens—and in particular, we extend thanks to Gabriela Aquije Zegarra and the Food Culture Lab for their hospitality!
