Event Details

Appetite Obscure: An Experimental Potluck

Appetite Obscure is an experimental dining experience, created by you and happening on a monthly basis. Please come prepared with an Interaction Dish.

What is an Interaction Dish, you ask? It’s food that you tell your eater how to experience. Eating is just one small part of the meal. The way the food is shared, dressed, dismantled, exploded, complimented, criticized, and played with is just as important as its taste. Your experience can be anything from a simple gesture to elaborate performances involving story-telling, costumes, language play, dance, games, tricks, or anything else imaginable.

Liberate yourself from the tyranny of the tongue and experience a new way of eating.

The theme for November is Deconstruction. Food is ripe for deconstruction. The food itself can be taken apart and reassembled, but there’s also a whole world of cultures, traditions, and rituals around eating. On this day, you can eat dessert before dinner, break chopstick etiquette, or swing wrecking balls into edible bridges. It is all up to you and your Interaction Dish.
