It's now been a year that the project Tour du Monde en 183 assiettes (a world tour in 183 plates) is exploring Brussels' mosaïc of cultures. Located in two places (Refresh Brussels, a cosy restaurant nested in Ixelles' rue du Sceptre and the space of MEDEX - Musée Ephémère de l'Exil in Saint-Gilles), the project offers the opportunity to the 183 communities living in Brussels to meet and get to know better each other.

Let's fight together against food waste

Initially enshrined in the fight against food waste, each edition saves between 150 and 200 kilos of bio food products. These are cooked during an open workshop the day before the brunch, which allows volunteers and amateurs to learn how to cook a traditional recipe. Free, this workshop is also the occasion to teach anti-waste good habits.

By bike

Every week, 6 days on 7, food leftovers are collected in sustainable partners, bio supermarkets and luxury bakeries, by our team of volunteers. Thanks to our four cargo-bikes, we do our best to have the best impact on the environment, and a carbon footprint almost near zero!

A motionless voyage

Since January 2018, our culinary travel goes on with a cultural night where people gather to attend concerts, exhibitions, lectures of poems, screenings of short and less short movies, debates... Through the universal language of arts and music, we are proud to contribute in connecting artists, activists and curious citizens around humanist and solidarity values.
