About us
P.S. The Dinner Club has now been adapted to something more intimate and personal: homecooked stories by Trang.
homecooked stories by Trang is a Vietnamese homecooking supper hosted every last Thursday evening and Sunday lunch of the month in Pankow, Berlin - following the traditional Northern Vietnamese family meal tradition: một mặn · một canh · một rau
(one savory/protein dish · one soup · one vegetable)
This is my way of showing love, staying close to my family memories, expressing the personal stories I don’t always know how to put into words, and extending the “home feeling” I crave to others in Berlin.
I was born into a Northern Vietnamese family that immigrated South, with relatives and friends from all parts of the country. My homecooking reflects all of these lived experiences.
People often ask me where the most authentic Vietnamese restaurant in Berlin is. Is there such a thing? I never know how to answer, because I grew up seeing how food changes with the people, the places, and the circumstances around it.

A Meal in Spring: What I Brought Back from Vietnam
Prenzlauer Berg, Sonnenburger Str., near Schoenhauser Allee, Berlin, DEWelcome to homecooked stories by Trang
A short Lunar New Year trip in February unexpectedly turned into a 3-month stay. In that time, I got to indulge in family meals that are impossible to find in Berlin.
I'm writing this event description while packing my suitcase to fly back. I'm coming back with new perspectives on my own culture and recipes.
As spring is finally here, I’m opening my home for a shared, homecooked Vietnamese lunch for anyone in Berlin craving a low-key gathering.
