Appayon: Bangladeshi Hospitality, Berlin's Table
Appayon means hospitality in Bangla, and that’s exactly what’s on the table.
Appayon Berlin is a supper club created by Farzana, rooted in the food, stories, and hospitality of South Asia, and shaped around community, connection, and belonging.
It began with South Asian food, but the table was never meant to stop there. Appayon is a space for South Asians, BIPOC communities, and anyone curious enough to pull up a chair and share the meal.
In this episode, we talked about what it means to represent Bangladeshi food in Berlin, the dishes that taste like home, and why creating spaces where people can eat, connect, and feel seen matters.
Because sometimes a shared meal can turn strangers into community, carry culture across borders, and make a city feel a little more like home.
Pull up a chair. There’s always room at Appayon’s table. 🤍
