Once Upon a Bite is an evening of stories, conversation, and food that explores how what we eat shapes who we are. From the forests of the Brothers Grimm to today’s tales of migration and home, food in folklore is not only sustenance but also enchantment, temptation, danger, and reward. Through readings, discussion, and a food sampling inspired by traditional folktales, you are invited to explore how food carries memory across time and borders. The evening concludes with a shared recipe exchange for a Digital Storybook Cookbook, a living archive of dishes and stories.

Food and wine for the evening are made possible through the generous support of UA Ruhr and 1014. Participants are asked to contribute $30 to help cover costs and confirm their registration for this intimate evening of stories and flavors.

Come hungry for stories, and stay for the flavors!
