The flavour of freedom - Ute Cohen

Ute Cohen describes the emergence of restaurants and menus, talks about table culture, star and TV chefs, eroticism while eating and she also takes a look into the nitrogen cloud in the "molecular kitchen". Three Berlin hotspots such as Rutz, Cookies Cream and Prism are among those featured.

The book launch marks the start of the author's soiree tour and her book "The Taste of Freedom".

She will kick off the tour together with Stephan Hentschel (Germany's first vegetarian star chef), who has also been a guest at Cohen's Club and presented the book "The Rejuvenation Plan", which he published together with Nina Ruge.

The writer and cultural journalist Dr Ute Cohen publishes her interviews in renowned newspapers and magazines around the country. Cohen has worked for leading American management consultancies. She was employed by UNESCO in Paris. She has published several books: "Satan's Playing Field", "Poor Dogs", "Falscher Garten" and the discussion volume "Chaos? Hinhören, Singen" together with the actress and chansonnière Ingrid Caven. In February 2023, she launched the literary format Cohen's Club. At the readings organised by The Booksoiree, she welcomes a literary guest every month to chat with them about their latest book. An art-loving audience can therefore always look forward to a captivating reading and stimulating conversations. Her culinary book "The Taste of Freedom - A Culinary Story" will be published by the renowned publisher Reclam on 19 July 2024.
