Swanson & Dressel in the Astor Filmlounge
Do you love cinema and food as much as we do? If that’s the case, don’t limit yourself to popcorn and cheese nachos during the movies; there are plenty of other options. The Astor Film Lounge, for example, offers not only very comfortable armchairs, but also unique snacks and a great wine list. However, this evening, we will once again outshine everything in our usual manner. May there be a little name-dropping? Previously, Tim Raue**, Hendrik Otto**, Michael Kempf**, and Max Strohe* have cooked here.
We invited Alexander Dressel* and Björn Swanson* from the Faelt in Schöneberg to participate in this year’s series. We’ve previously worked with both chefs. Dressel is even a two-time eat! berlin award winner. In 2020, he was honored as a promoter of epicurean culture and also received the audience award in the same year. He was given the patron award because, as president of the top chefs’ association Jeunes Restaurateurs Deutschland, he has made significant contributions to the organization and, as a result, to German culinary culture. The JRE is also what connects Dressel and Swanson; Björn is the only Berlin member.
During the evening, they will cook us a 4-course menu. For you to enjoy the meals the movie “À la Carte! – Freedom goes through the stomach” will have to be interrupted occasionally. This film takes us to France in 1789, where the powdered aristocrats lived in luxury. One of the personal chefs of one of the aristocrats dares to serve his master something ordinary such as potatoes and is therefore expelled from court. As revenge, he opens the first restaurant in France, where everyone is spoiled with culinary delicacies. The film is beautifully staged and sympathetically cast.
