Home Remodeling

**A Vietnamese home-style New Year’s Eve for those spending the night in Berlin.** On New Year’s Eve, many things in Berlin revolve around noise, countdowns, and party plans made weeks in advance. For a homebody like me, I often feel a little out of place. And this year, I suddenly don’t feel like spending the holiday alone. So I’m opening my kitchen for a spontaneous, cozy and low-key New Year’s Eve gathering. **The Story** It was a culture shock for me to realize that New Year’s Eve in Europe doesn’t have a strong family focus. In Vietnam, it does. In my family, New Year’s Eve get-together has never been about showing up when dinner is ready. One family hosts, but everyone helps. We arrive hours early. We cook together, snack in the kitchen, drink a little wine, talk, and catch up. The food is finished before midnight, but we don’t eat yet. At midnight, we gather, make a toast, welcome the new year, and only then do we sit down and eat together. This evening follows that tradition. **What the evening looks like** * **Cooking together** I’ll show you how to make Vietnamese fried spring rolls using my family recipe. If you’re curious, I’ll also share how I prepare other dishes on the menu. * **Year-end reflection** Before eating, we’ll take a short pause to reflect on the year that’s ending. You’ll be invited to write a short letter to yourself for the year ahead. I’ll keep your sealed letter and send it back to you in January, and then remind you to open it one year from now. * **Midnight** We eat and celebrate together after midnight. **The NYE Menu** * **Chả giò chiên** – Vietnamese fried spring rolls *(we’ll roll them together; some will be fried for the night, and if there's leftover, you're welcome to take some home. So don't be shy and bring your Tupperware!)* * **Cánh gà chiên nước mắm tỏi** – garlic fish sauce fried chicken * **Thịt ba rọi quay** – crispy roasted pork belly * A **small, sweet dessert surprise** Drinks (tea, water, & a reasonable casual-drinking amount of wine/beer) are included. No vegan or vegetarian option will be available for this dinner.

**The traditional gaming day, returning for 2025.** No plans for Silvester? Don't like loud or large groups, or clubbing? No problem. Let us celebrate Silvester with board gaming, pen & paper roleplaying games, and food and drink. We're starting early with games for kids, then some long-form games in the afternoon, and then switch to shorter games in the evening. **Rough timeline:** 13:00 Kid's board or card games 15:00 Boardgames & RPGs (these will definitely include the now traditional *Land of Og*) 19:00 Pizza! 19:30 More gaming! 23:00 Dinner for One 23:45 Countdown with champagne **We will provide:** * board games * roleplaying games * snacks, drinks, and pizzas * champagne * nosy cats You provide: yourself! (And any specialty drinks or snacks you'd like to share.) As this is at our house, space is limited. We therefore ask you to only mark yourself as attending if you're truly coming, and to update your attendance if you can no longer make it. Similarly, if spaces have run out but you want to attend, please put yourself on the waiting list—there is generally a lot of movement close to the event. Our house is a short bus ride or a \~25 minute walk from S Mahlsdorf, where the S5 connects conveniently to Ostkreuz, Alexanderplatz, and others. If it's the same as previous years, on Silvester the S5 runs every 10 minutes until after 02:00, at which point it switches to every 20 minutes. The 395 bus to S Mahlsdorf runs every 20 minutes, and later switches to the N95 that runs every 30 minutes, so connectivity is pretty good.

The Moody Comedy Show is an interactive stand-up experience where the audience sets the tone! Just like in life, we all have different moods—happy, angry, excited, or maybe just “meh”—and comedians are no different. Each performer will embrace their mood on stage, delivering jokes that match their vibe, whether they’re feeling upbeat, frustrated, or existential. But that’s not all—you get to join in too! Audience members will write down their mood, and we’ll pull from a hat, riffing on your emotions in real-time. It’s a comedy show that evolves with the energy in the room https://www.eventbrite.de/e/moody-comedy-showcase-tickets-1276031276899?aff=oddtdtcreator
