The Hunger Moon

In cooperation with the Full Moon Cabaret, a monthly speakeasy burlesque show, varieté and cabaret in Berlin, we staged this extraordinary dining experience – an evening of magic, metamorphosis, and mad dreams.

Following the Native American moon calendar, each month/moon has a particular theme: in February, it was all about the Hunger Moon. Together with the artists and performers of the show we created an absolute unique and unforgettable dining event: a feast for the senses with an 8-course banquet dedicated to Food Porn. Because food is love and we need to feed our souls.
