foodlab.

The foodlab is a meeting place for foodies. Whether start-up, SME or industry: we want to offer everyone the opportunity to network and produce.

foodlab offers a coworking space for people from the food sector, kitchen space for testing, creating and producing, a media studio for content production and events, a pop-up space where restaurant concepts can be accommodated on a rotating basis, and an accelerator programme in which they support young companies with expert:inside knowledge and coaching. Since the beginning of the year, they have been running their café themselves, which serves speciality coffees and guest coffees that change monthly. The dishes and products behind the counter come directly from the foodlab teams themselves.

The foodlab is open not only to makers but also to all connoisseurs - everyone can experience the foodlab according to their own taste.

Every four weeks, foodlab. offers a new idea a place in their pop-up restaurant; with a total of 60 seats including a cosy lounge area and, in summer, a terrace.

His dishes are colourful with intense spices. There will be a pleasant spiciness paired with a refreshing acidity and with lots of sweetness in the dessert. The menu features selected traditional vegan and vegetarian dishes as well as meat dishes. In addition to classic Karri - which is also the name of the restaurant - there will be the street food "Kottu Rotti". In addition: drinks created especially for Karri with arrack, whisky, gin & rum and typical local fruits.
