This themed exhibition provides answers to questions we all ask ourselves about the things we eat. How much sugar, fat or salt does our food contain? How is the food digested? Should I be exercising more when I eat fatty food? What are the eating habits of other cultures and what flavours do they use?

Take a seat and discover flavours and aromas during a romantic dinner or experience the fun of having dinner while playing a round of table football.
