Second Encounter (in English)
A Series of Encounters about Food and Politics
Turning the Tables: Palestinian and Israeli Cuisines
Chair: Prof. Daniel Monterescu, Dr. Ronald Ranta
Participants:Reem Kassis, Yotam Ottolenghi, Gal Ben Moshe, Claudia Roden
Chefs, sommeliers, and scholars, Jews and Arabs, talk about food and politics in the kitchen.
There has never been an open and critical discussion of the political issues underlying gastronomy in Israel.
This series of meetings sets out from the assumption that the local cuisine is necessarily influenced by the struggle for national self-definition, cultural appropriation, and gender representation.
Join us for a roundtable that combines food and thought.
Steering committee: Daniel Monterescu, Omar Elwan, Yair Yosefi, Noa Berger, Basma Fahoum, Gal Ben Moshe
In the last few years Middle Eastern, Palestinian and Israeli cuisines have experienced a global boom, from London to New York, Paris to Berlin. What is the secret of this success, and how can the phenomenon be understood? How does “migrant” cuisine integrate into local culinary culture, and what happens to the culinary politics of the Levant as it travels overseas?
