3rd
Project Meeting – Leipzig
From 26th
to 28th November 2013 the third project meeting took place in
Leipzig, Germany. 28 guests from the partner countries met to learn more about
the German food traditions.
On
the first day of the meeting, the program began with a cooking presentation of
the “good witch” Grit from Kräuterhof Falkenhain who showed the learners how to
prepare food from regional and seasonal herbs. This program point was followed
by the visit of the food exhibition “Is(s) was?! Essen und Trinken in
Deutschland” and a guided tour in the Leipzig City Center.
The
second day was characterized by cooking, cooking and more cooking. An
intercultural cooking game intended to foster intercultural exchange. The
learners prepared dishes from the partner countries and thus could get in close
contact and learn from each other. In the afternoon the participants could
experience firsthand how a typical German dinner is prepared during a workshop
at VHS school. The same evening presentations about the project were held by all partners.
On
the third and last meeting day, the learners could visit the
Susanna-Eger-cooking school and get an insight in German cooking education.
After the official farewell the participants could enjoy the Leipzig Christmas
market. Unfortunately
there´s only one meeting left but all partners look very much forward to
meeting again in Montluçon, France for the final project event in May 2014.
It was a very interesting and productive meeting in Leipzig.
The team of wisamar would like to say Thank you!
