Eating & Drinking

Most Mondays are quickly forgotten. This one doesn’t have to be. Join us for a relaxed evening of conversations, new connections and a little escape from routines, screens and the feeling that life only starts on weekends. Sometimes all it takes is one good evening to change the mood of an entire week. ✨ Suggested Ice Breaker Question: “What kind of people are you hoping to meet in Berlin?” Orga The location accepts only card payments. We will be sitting in the first room. Questions?
